Cheesy Broccoli Casserole

This is another recipe from Linda’s Low Carb Menus here. It was reasonably easy to make, and was quite tasty (although could perhaps have done with a bit more cheese if you like your cheese). The recipe does a good job of making broccoli more palatable for those who don’t like it on its own.
