Broccoli cauliflower au gratin

 

One of the easiest sides I’ve ever made without any lapse in taste. This is a home run!

Ingredients:

1 medium head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 bunch broccoli, cut into florets
1 cup half and half
sea salt and ground pepper to taste
2 pinches ground nutmeg
shredded cheddar or gruyere cheese to taste
bread crumb to taste
Preheat oven to 350 F.

In a bowl, combine the half and half, salt, pepper and nutmeg and set aside.

Place all of the florets in a 9×13″ baking dish. Pour in the half and half mixture all over the veggies, cover your baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove from oven, add the cheese (I used about 1/2 cup) and the bread crumb (I used 1/4 cup). Pop back into the oven for an additional 10 minutes. If you want it to get golden brown, set it to broil at the end for a few minutes.

Yields 6 servings.
