1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
3 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped broccoli (or broccoli-cauliflower mix)
8 ounces shredded SHARP cheddar cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 pinches paprika
bread stuffing mix

Preheat oven to 350 degrees; Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Mix condensed soup, mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, egg and onion.
Break up the frozen broccoli in a large bowl.
Add soup mixture to broccoli, and mix well.
Sprinkle on cheese, seasonings, and mix well.
Spread mixture into prepared baking dish, and smooth top of casserole. MAKE AHEAD TO THIS POINT.

Here is one of our family favorites:
5 cups frozen mixed vegetables ( corn, green beans, limas, peas, not broccoli and cauliflower kind)
1 cup chopped celery
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup grated cheddar
1 cup mayonnaise (I use light mayo)
1/2 cup butter
34 Ritz crackers, crushed
Cook onion, celery and vegetables until just tender and drain very well. Place into 9x13 greased casserole dish.
Mix cheese and mayo and spread over vegetables. Combine crackers and butter and spread on top. Bake 30 minutes at 350.
To make ahead cook vegetables up to 2 days before, mix cheese and mayo and put into a container, crackers and butter go into a zip lok bag ( I mix mine in the bag). I layer it just before I cook it. Enjoy!

I forgot to tell you that the mixed vegetables are a 20 ounce bag. That's easier than measuring out 5 cups of frozen vegetables. I cook those in the microwave. My grands do the cracker butter mix and stir the mayo and cheese together.
I really do not like the green bean casserole with the fried onions on top, and I pretty much avoid recipes that start with mushroom soup. That started with not liking to eat grey food...I know, I'm wierd....
