Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish.

Step 2

Place broccoli in a large microwave-safe bowl. Pour ¼ cup water into the bottom, cover, and microwave on high for 4–5 minutes. The broccoli should be completely defrosted.

Step 3

Drain the broccoli well.

Step 4

Place 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet. Add the onion and cook for 4–5 minutes, or until the onion is very soft. Sprinkle in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.

Step 5

Whisk in the milk and salt. Cook for 2 minutes, or until thickened slightly. Stir in the Velveeta and cook until the Velveeta is melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 6

Add the broccoli and beaten eggs to the Velveeta mixture. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Pour into the prepared dish.

Step 8

Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Place in a medium bowl, and stir in the crushed Ritz crackers. Sprinkle the mixture over the broccoli in the casserole dish.
