Ingredients
- ½ cup Panko bread crumbs
- 4 tablespoons butter divided
- 4 cups broccoli florets cut into bite sized pieces
- 4 cups cauliflower florets cut into bite sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 3 ounces cream cheese
- ½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Combine 2 tablespoons butter with bread crumbs and set aside.
- Boil cauliflower in a large pot for 2 minutes. Add in broccoli and cook for an additional 2 minutes or until tender-crisp. Drain well.
- In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add in flour, stirring until smooth. Add milk whisking constantly over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Stir in cream cheese, mustard powder, salt, pepper, & garlic powder until smooth. Add in cheddar cheese. Toss with broccoli and cauliflower.
- Place in a 2qt (or 9x9) baking dish. Top with breadcrumb mixture and bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes or until heated through.
Notes
- Drain the vegetables very well, water between the florets can make the sauce watery.
- Frozen broccoli and cauliflower can be used and should be cooked just until tender crisp.
- Vegetables can be steamed instead of boiled if preferred.
- Grate your own cheese from a block of cheese (and use sharp cheddar) for the best results.
- If preparing ahead of time, store the crumb mixture separately and remove the casserole from the fridge for at least 30 minutes before baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F until heated through.
- Once cooled, letftovers can be placed in a zippered bag and frozen for up to 2 months.
