I added red pepper flakes and substituted Swiss and gruyere cheese. Delicious.
Adding red pepper flakes, Swiss and Gruyere cheese sounds so good! Great additions!
Can this be made as muffins?
Yes, you can use a muffin pan instead.
Have you ever made this with almond milk instead of heavy cream? I am looking for a non-dairy modification (eliminating the cheese and substituting for the cream), and was hoping to use almond milk and add tomatoes as well.
Coconut milk will probably be the better substitute for heavy cream in this recipe.
I made this with non-sweetened coconut creamer. Had asked my hubby to buy oat milk or cream. Turned out great.
Jan, glad to hear that! Thank you for your feedback! 🙂
Can I make it the night before?
Yes, you can assemble the casserole the night before, cover it air-tight, keep it refrigerated, and then bake it the next day!
DO you use frozen broccoli, cooked and drained?
I used fresh broccoli that I cooked in boiling water.
Does this reheat well? How many days does it last?
This reheats well. Lasts about 5 days, refrigerated, covered.
I made this recipe as written, except I cut it in half as there are only two of us. The broccoli was a nice addition. I would definitely make this recipe again.
So glad you liked it! Yes, broccoli is delicious in this recipe!
Loved this! Whole family enjoyed this dish. Made it exactly how it was directed. The broccoli florets really brightened up the dish. Going to add to our breakfast brunch go to meals.
I made this today and it's fantastic. I did not layer but instead just mixed it all together and cooked. Came out perfect. I'm sure it can be made the night before and cooked in the morning but I used a glass dish so it would have to sit at room temp. for at least a half hour before putting into oven or put into a cold oven and add about 10 minutes to cooking time.
Thank you! I am glad you liked this casserole! 🙂
Thank you!! Several people have asked about preparing the night before but received no response.
Did anyone try making this overnight? How did it turn out?
You can bake it and then refrigerate it and reheat it in the oven the next day (or reheat individual portions in microwave).
How long do I reheat it and at what temp?
What if frozen hash browns are hard to find?
You can make your own by shredding the raw potato with the shredder.
Can I make this tonite for tomorrow morning
Made recipe as described and it turned out delicious.
If I assemble this the day before, would I need to change any cooking times/temps?
can this recipe be assembled today, refrigerated and cooked tomorrow?
Can the hash brown broccoli casserole be made today refrigerated and cooked in the morning
This looks deicious. Pinned!
