Ingredients

2 cups fresh cauliflower florets
1 medium green bell pepper, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium yellow summer squash, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1 package (8 oz) fresh whole mushrooms
2 cups French bread cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 oz Havarti cheese, shredded (1 cup)
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (4 oz)
1 cup shredded American cheese (4 oz)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Heat oven to 450°F. In large bowl, toss dippers with oil to coat evenly; arrange in ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender and bread cubes are toasted.

Add cheese mixture 1/2 cup at a time, stirring each time until melted. Cook until very warm. Pour into fondue pot. Stir in garlic powder. Keep warm over medium-low heat.
