Cauliflower Bake
Time: 10 minutes prep, 35 minutes bake
Serves: 6-8
From: Naturally Ella
1 1/2 cup marinara (I used store bought but homemade will work as well.)
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cup milk
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1 cup bread crumbs
4 cup cauliflower
2 cup broccoli
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400˚.
Begin by chopping cauliflower and broccoli into small pieces, steam until veggies are tender (but not soggy.)
While the veggies steam, make the white sauce: Over medium low heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour so that a paste forms. Slowly add in milk and whisk together. Keep over medium low heat and whisk often until the roux begins to thicken (should coat the back of a spoon.) Remove from heat and mix in Parmesan cheese. Once veggies are done, mix white sauce and veggies together.
In a small bowl, whip ricotta, basil, rosemary, and black pepper: set aside.
Once veggies and white sauce are done, begin to layer ingredients in an 9 x 13 pan. Start with ricotta cheese, then layer on the veggies/white sauce, top with marinara, and finish with breadcrumbs.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese begins to bubble.
