Broccoli Cauliflower Casserole

pbrsucks's Note:

Broccoli Cauliflower Casserole that doesn't taste like a 3 year old made it

• Total Time: 1 hrs
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 40 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• 1 bunch broccoli
• 1 head cauliflower
• 1 (8 ounce) can evaporated milk
• 1 (8 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup or 1 (8 ounce) can cream of chicken soup or 1 (8 ounce) can celery soup
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup butter, softened (optional, to be mixed with soup and milk)

Directions:

1. Cut broccoli and cauliflower into edible-sized pieces of and set aside for the moment. Crush/mince the garlic and add the pinch of salt to the garlic, for this will help the mincing if you're doing it by hand.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine milk and both cans of soup and mix well. You may mix the spices in with the soup mix at this time, as well as with the garlic, or you can add the spices at the end to top off the casserole.
3. Finally, put the broccoli and cauliflower in a casserole dish, then pour the soup mix and spices over top, distributing evenly.
4. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the top and bake (covered) for about 30-40 minutes at 350°F., or until vegetables are soft enough to eat.
5. A variation of this recipe might include red peppers or sauteed chicken breast (both are quite good), which can be mixed in with the soup mix.
6. The combination of spices included here is only a guideline, and you are encouraged to try your own combinations, although you shouldn't leave out the garlic.
