Broccoli-Cheese Casserole

I like to make this as a vegetable side dish. But it's so yummy, I end up eating it more than the main course.

INGREDIENTS:
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 cup of mayonnaise
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 16 oz bag of frozen chopped broccoli
8 oz shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 sleeve of Ritz crackers, crushed

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together cream of mushroom soup, mayo, egg, & onion.
3. Place frozen broccoli in another mixing bowl. Break up the frozen broccoli. Using a rubber spatula, scrape soup-mayo mixture on top of broccoli. Add the cheese. Season with salt & pepper. Mix well. Move mixture onto prepared baking dish & smooth top of casserole.
4. Sprinkle the crushed Ritz crackers all over top of casserole.
5. Bake for 45 minutes in preheated oven.
