Ingredients

• 1 medium head Cauliflower
• 1 medium head Broccoli
• 2 large Carrots
• 4 medium Potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Milk
• 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
• 1 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cups Breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Cut the cauliflower and broccoli into small florets. Peel and slice the carrots into thin rounds. Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes.

Step 3

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 5 minutes. Then add the carrots, cauliflower, and broccoli, and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Drain the vegetables and set them aside.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, whisking constantly, to form a roux.

Step 5

Gradually whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 3 minutes.

Step 6

Season the sauce with nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and fully incorporated.

Step 7

Spread the cooked vegetables evenly in the prepared baking dish. Pour the cheese sauce over the vegetables, ensuring they are fully coated.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, and olive oil together. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the casserole.

Step 9

Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.

Step 10

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm as a main dish or side dish.
