Broccoli casserole. Help.

[Kymberley]

Let me preface: I do not make casseroles. DH is not a fan, so I don't make them. However, Christmas dinner at my grandmother's house is 15 casseroles and ham. She can't do all of the work anymore, so I volunteered to make the broccoli casserole. I need a great recipe. I prefer no rice. Velveeta is okay, but I prefer a mixture with real cheese if possible.

What about a broccoli gratin, something like this?
