Creamy Baked Broccoli and Cauliflower Gratin

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and broccoli florets and cook for 3-5 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and transfer to a 13x9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, mustard, salt, nutmeg, cayenne, and pepper until smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk and bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes until thickened.

  3. 3

    Remove from heat and stir in 1-1/4 cups each of the mozzarella and Swiss cheeses until melted. Pour the cheese sauce over the vegetables in the baking dish and stir to coat. Bake for 15-20 minutes until bubbly. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup each of mozzarella and Swiss cheeses over the top and bake for 5 more minutes until golden brown.
