Description

Imagine a dish that brings together the heartiness of savory sausage, the gentle bite of broccoli, and the subtle sweetness of cauliflower, all bathed in a velvety, rich cheese sauce. This bake is a symphony of textures and flavors, designed to be both satisfying and comforting. The pork sausages, browned to perfection, offer a delightful meaty flavor that is enhanced by the freshness of the vegetables.

Each floret of broccoli and cauliflower is tender, yet still retains a slight firmness, providing a pleasant contrast to the smooth cheese sauce. The sauce itself is a creamy blend of cheeses, melted together to create a luscious coating that clings to every piece of sausage and vegetable. As the bake is heated, the cheese bubbles and turns a beautiful golden brown, creating an irresistible aroma that fills the kitchen.

Feel free to experiment with different types of sausage to customize the flavor profile to your liking. A sausage with herbs will add an extra layer of complexity, while a spicy sausage can introduce a pleasant warmth. If you prefer a different protein, diced chicken can be used as a substitute, offering a lighter alternative.

This versatile bake can be enjoyed on its own as a complete meal, or it can be paired with a variety of side dishes to create a more substantial feast. Consider serving it with a fresh, vibrant salad, or perhaps some roasted vegetables for added nutrition and flavor. Whether you're looking for a comforting family meal or a satisfying dish to enjoy on a chilly evening, this sausage and veggie bake is sure to please.

It's a simple yet elegant dish that celebrates the natural flavors of its ingredients, creating a truly memorable dining experience. The combination of savory sausage, tender vegetables, and creamy cheese sauce is a timeless classic that is sure to become a favorite in your household.

Instructions

    1.
    Add the cauliflower and broccoli florets to a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 4-5 minutes until just tender. Drain completely and set aside to steam dry. While the cauliflower is cooking, roughly chop the sausages into bite-sized chunks. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over a medium heat. Add the sausage pieces and cook until browned all over.
    2.
    To prepare the sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan over a low/medium heat. Crush the garlic and add to the pan, sweating until tender. Add the cream cheese, stock, salt, pepper and mustard powder. Stir well to combine. Bring to a simmer until the cream cheese has melted and you have a smooth sauce.
    3.
    Add half a cup of grated cheddar cheese and the parmesan to the saucepan. Stir well to combine until the cheese has melted. You should have a smooth and creamy sauce.
    4.
    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Select a medium-sized oven-proof dish. Arrange the part cooked cauliflower and broccoli in the base of the oven dish. Arrange the sausage pieces in amongst the vegetables in an even layer.
    5.
    Pour the creamy cheese sauce over the vegetables and sausages. Make sure everything is covered evenly in the sauce. Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese over the top of the sausages and vegetables. Transfer to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until piping hot through, bubbling, and golden.
