If you love cauliflower and broccoli with cheese you can't go wrong with the recipe. This is one of the dishes I prepared for Christmas Dinner in 2010. It was so delicious that my sister & I just wanted to eat it and nothing else. I didn't alter this recipe and made it exactly as it stated. I hope you enjoy. I found this on www.food.com
