Vegan broccoli casserole recipe

½ bag frozen broccoli

½ bag frozen cauliflower

1 package shredded cheddar cheese (I used Violife)

2 cup soy milk 

1 tsp salt 

1 tsp pepper 

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp smoked paprika

2 tbsp all-purpose flour

4 tbsp butter (I used Earth Balance)

½ cup breadcrumbs 

1. In a pot, melt 4 tbsp of butter. Then add flour and whisk until the raw flour smell has dissipated. 

2. Slowly add soy milk to the roux, continuously whisking to prevent clumps. Once the soy milk has thickened, season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.

3. Keep the heat on and add the shredded cheddar cheese. Whisk until completely uniform and the cheese has melted. 

4. Pour the frozen broccoli and cauliflower into a casserole dish. Preheat the oven to 400℉. Then pour the cheese sauce over the broccoli and cauliflower. 

5. Once mixed, top with a generous sprinkle of bread crumbs and melted butter. Then bake the casserole for about 30 minutes. Let it sit and cool for 15 minutes and serve. Enjoy!
