Passed down through the generations, this broccoli souffle recipe has become a holiday staple in our family. A savory taste with a crispy cheese topping makes it a sure win.
Saute the onion in the butter before you make the roux. Cut down the flour to two tablespoons, then follow as directed except add 1/2 c shredded cheese to the mixture. Sprinkle another 1/2 c on top after you've turned everything out into the casserole.
Read MoreWe did not care for this. Husband is not a big fan of vegetables to begin with and this was no exception. I made as directed except I didn't need 10 servings so I reduced the recipe to 4 servings and I used fresh steamed broccoli. It was very pretty but was very bland and mushy. I am sure I could tweek this with spices but I won't and will not make this again. Sorry just didn't work for us.

I used fresh broccoli and halved the recipe for one person. Delicious!
Pretty good. I added extra onion but should have added even more. Don't leave out the salt!
Delicious, perfect, didn't have cheese to put on top. Have some cooked chicken that chopped and added. Everybody loves it.
Family loved it! Instead of "3 tablespoons chopped onion" I put in an entire dices sauteed onion (we love onion).
My whole family can't get enough of it. I make it with fresh broccoli so it takes a little more time but that's just my choice. Absolutely a hit for parties
It's rare that I actually have all the ingredients for a recipe, but I was pretty close on this one. I used soy milk and mixed Swiss cheese with the cheddar. It was GREAT!

I thought it was absolutely the easies soufflé ever and sooo delicious. Having it for Easter , had it as a trial run tonight. I wouldn't change a thing.
My family includes 2 Vegetarians and I wanted something that they could enjoy with Thanksgiving dinner. But the leftover was enjoyed by all for Breakfast the next morning! This will be a traditional dish for the Holidays for sure! It was delicious and the only difference was I used a grated 4 cheese blend instead of only cheddar.
I’ve made several times. It is now a family fav! Today o added a small can of mushrooms to the recipe.
Absolutely delicious! I sautéed the onions plus 1 Tbsp minced garlic with the butter before adding the flour and milk to make the roux. Otherwise, I didn’t change it and wouldn’t! It says ten servings, which may be correct if you’re serving it as a side dish. As a meal, this made only 4-6 servings. I used a 4 quart casserole dish and it didn’t even fill it halfway.
I did it! I had yet to open the oven and see it but had told a friend of mine “Wheewboy, never again!”.... but it’s beautiful and aromatic and I can hardly wait for it cool off and dig in!
My son, who usually doesn’t like casseroles, loved it! It tasted fresh. I would add a bit more salt.

I love this recipe! Doubled it for company. Added s & p and some fresh garlic. Major yum and well liked. Printed out the recipe for guests
This recipe is great as is! Next time will add chicken and could probably make it a dinner in a dish!
The original recipe is supposed to serve 10. When I finished mixing everything using just what the recipe called for I realized it might feed just two.
I added three extra eggs, some diced bacon and a can of chicken breast and more cheese. I haven't had a chance to try it yet but it looks and smells really good.
Made it. Loved it. Will definitely make again! I made two small changes: - used liquid eggs (egg beaters) vs real eggs - cut back a bit on mayo (used about 75% of what recipe called for).
Used steamed fresh broccoli. Everyone enjoyed it, kids included. Will certainly make again!
Used fresh broccoli and little more cheese. Honestly, Enjoyed the flavor better the next night (leftovers) will make again. Giddy up!
Loved it. Used fresh broccoli and 2Tbls cornstarch for flour. Had leftovers for breakfast next morning.
This was a very good broccoli souffle. It's the first time I've ever made one. I found this recipe easy to follow and forgiving of minor mis-steps. Leftovers kept well and reheated in the oven nicely. I made mine with fresh chopped steamed broccoli. Next time I might add a few touches of my own to add a little more flavor as I found the taste just a wee bit on the bland side. It was one of those deals where the first bite or two tasted a little bland but the more you ate the better it tasted...lol. I'll be keeping this as my basic broccoli souffle recipe.
baked as written, great flavor, between the mayo and the cheddar.I made enough to enjoy a second evening....
I used Harvarti Creamy cheese and added a few chopped garlics and caramelized it with onions when I heated up the butter. I added chopped ham. This came out OUTSTANDING! Soooo good!
We made this and followed the directions but also some of the suggestions to add more onion, garlic, extra cheese etc but still found that it was VERY bland. I considered ways of making this recipe more flavorful but have just decided to search for a new recipe base for our next time.
Love this dish and have made it several times. I add different seasonings every time and usually use onion powder instead of actual onions. So far mince garlic and basil has been my favorite mix. This is one i will continue to make.
No subs. Just as is. Not a huge fan of broccoli but went back for thirds! Awesome!!!
I changed the serving size to 3 and it just yielded a tiny portion. If I decide to give this dish another try I would follow it the way it is. I don’t like how much mayonnaise is in this dish, I’d probably add less.
We loved it and it is now a favorite in our family! The only change I made was to use fresh broccoli (because that's what I had on hand) that I chopped, then steamed a little before combining with the other ingredients.
Very good! Kid approved, too!
We enjoyed the recipe but thought the white sauce a little to thick -- next time I would reduce the flour by 1/2 and I think it would be a better consistency.
A little bland. Needs more salt and pepper and a little too much mayo for my taste. But would make again with these adjustments.
Even though there were no added spices, this was very flavorful! I used fresh broccoli and scaled it down to 2 eggs. Perfect for a small casserole dish. Had a portion as my main dinner tonight. It would be a good side dish. UPDATE: Very light and fluffy. Added garlic powder to the sauce this time. Delicious.
I added zucchini and bacon. It rocked! Served a side salad and feed 4, not the 10 it suggests for some reason.
