Teresa Ambra
This amazing casserole features broccoli, cauliflower and carrots in a creamy Velveeta cheese sauce and topped with a sprinkle of Ritz cracker crumbs. Great holiday side dish.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 16-oz. pkgs. frozen broccoli cauliflower & carrots
  • 2 inch slab velveeta cheese cubed
  • 4 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 sleeve Ritz crackers crushed
  • 1 stick unsalted butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Place cooked veggies in bottom of a greased 9x13" baking dish.
  • Melt cheese, 4 tbsp. butter and milk in small saucepan over low heat.
  • Stir and pour over veggies.
  • Combine crackers and melted butter.
  • Sprinkle over top of casserole.
  • Bake in 350° oven for about 30 minutes until heated through.

Notes

NOTE: I usually microwave each pound of veggies for about 7 minutes--not the full 10 minutes according to package directions.
NOTE: Cheddar Cheese can be substituted for Velveeta cheese.
NOTE: You can also put frozen veggies into a greased baking dish. Cook covered at 350 for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 30 minutes or so or until veggies are fork tender.
NOTE: Be careful to slowly melt the cheese over low heat as Velveeta will scorch easily if the heat is too high.
