If you think that you don’t like Brussels sprouts, I’m going to need you to stop what you are doing and make this fantastic cheese brussel sprout casserole. It is creamy and delicious, comes together with simple ingredients, and is absolutely amazing. This is a great way to add some vegetables to your dinner, but also makes a fantastic Thanksgiving side dish. It is sure to convert even the pickiest eater into a Brussels sprouts lover.

How to Bake Brussels Sprouts

There are a million and one Brussels sprout recipes out there. And there are so many different ways that you can do them. Here is a brief overview of how this recipe comes together in the oven. For the full recipe including all measurements, scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

  1. Roast the Brussels sprouts. Bake the cut sprouts covered for 30 minutes, tossing them halfway through. The sprouts should be fairly tender at this point.
  2. Make the creamy sauce. Mix together the condensed soup, eggs, some of the mozzarella cheese, milk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
  3. Put it all together. Pour the mixture over the roasted Brussels sprouts. Toss to combine in the casserole dish. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and the bread crumbs.
  4. Bake the casserole. Bake the casserole for 15 minutes, uncovered. Broil for a minute or two, watching very closely so it does not burn. Let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Homemade Bread Crumbs

Making breadcrumbs at home is perfect for using up old bread. It is also great when you run out of breadcrumbs and are in a pinch to make a recipe, or when you want more control over the ingredients in your recipes. It is super simple to make them plain or seasoned. They are easy to keep on hand to make this casserole, meatloaf, or turkey burgers.

How to Make Breadcrumbs

Making breadcrumbs is as easy as opening your oven. This is a simple recipe, with an option for making them seasoned, perfect for when you run out of breadcrumbs.

Cream of Mushroom Soup From Scratch

I like to give you options to make recipes completely from scratch, including making your own cream of mushroom soup. While you can totally make this cheesy Brussels sprouts casserole with store-bought cream of mushroom soup, if you have the time and ingredients I recommend making it yourself.

Homemade Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup

Homemade Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup is an easy homemade swap for a grocery staple. Use this to replace the can when you want a from scratch dinner!

Storing and Reheating Leftover Brussels Sprouts

Store any leftover casserole in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat only the portion you plan to eat in the microwave or oven until heated through. Always use your best discretion with leftovers and never reheat them more than once.

  3. Sherri says

    What’s the best way to thaw the frozen Brussels sprouts??? The package doesn’t give directions and how far in advance can I thaw them before making this dish

    • Lisa Longley says

      To thaw quickly, I would put them in the microwave, covered for 2 minutes at half power. Then stir and continue for 1 minute intervals until just thawed.

  4. Mary Jones says

    F u use fresh sprouts do u have to cook them first

    • Lisa Longley says

      Yes, if you use fresh brussels sprouts you should par boil them first.

  5. Julie says

    How much is 2 (10) ounces frozen Brussels Sprouts? My bag is 750 g. Thank you.

    • Lisa Longley says

      You want two bags that are about 300 grams each.

  6. Ran says

    Can I mix the casserole and freeze it for two days before I bake it?

    • Lisa Longley says

      I’m sorry, I haven’t tested that with this recipe.

  7. Jennifer says

    Going to make this recipe today. The bag of frozen sprouts is 500 grams. Will I need to make any changes to the recipe. I realize I’m lacking your suggested 600…??

    Thanks

    • Lisa Longley says

      No, you should be okay.

  8. denise says

    Can you double or trible the recipe? if so how long to bake it. Will doubling fill a 8 x 13 pyrex? Thanks,

    • Lisa Longley says

      You could double it in an 9 by 13 inch baking dish, but I don’t think triple will work.
