HOLIDAY BROCCOLI-CAULIFLOWER CASSEROLE



Holiday Broccoli-Cauliflower Casserole image

This is a great side dish that is perfect for any holiday. It goes well with any dinner - ham, turkey, prime rib, etc. I have also done this using all cauliflower, so I suppose you could do all broccoli if you prefer. It is also fine to make this ahead and reheat. You couldn't ask for a more versatile recipe!
