Creamy winter vegetable casserole recipe Ultracomforting easy baked veggie casserole with a rich cheesy sauce Perfect coldweather comfort food 

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large sweet onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and sliced into half-moons
  • 1 small head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 2 parsnips, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Add the carrots, cauliflower, and parsnips to the skillet. Pour in the vegetable broth, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 8-10 minutes, just until the vegetables begin to soften.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, dried thyme, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
  • Transfer the slightly softened vegetables to your prepared baking dish. Pour the cream mixture evenly over them and gently stir to combine. Sprinkle 1 cup of the Gruyère cheese over the vegetables and stir again.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of Gruyère, Parmesan cheese, and Panko breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly and the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Notes
