How To Make Broccoli Cauliflower Casserole
This section shows how to make cauliflower broccoli casserole, with step-by-step photos and details about the technique, to help you visualize it. For full instructions with amounts and temperatures, see the recipe card. You want the broccoli and cauliflower slightly undercooked here. They will soften more when you bake the broccoli cauliflower casserole.
Make It A Meal – Add cooked (diced or shredded) chicken to add protein. I often use leftover baked chicken breast, but if you don’t have any, you can make Instant Pot chicken pretty fast. Buffalo – Simply drizzle with buffalo sauce at the end. You can also combine diced baked buffalo chicken with the vegetables and a drizzle of buffalo sauce. Spinach And Feta – Mix in sauteed spinach and crumbled feta cheese to introduce a fresh and tangy element to the broccoli cauliflower casserole.
Chicken – You can add cooked chicken to the casserole (see variations above), or simply make some easy pan seared chicken breasts or spicier peri peri chicken. Seafood – The creamy texture in this cheesy broccoli cauliflower casserole pairs perfectly with garlic butter shrimp, or quick and easy broiled salmon. Steak – Serve it with a juicy air fryer steak. For a fancy meal, make a perfect ribeye steak or air fried filet mignon. Pork – Tender pork steaks are excellent with this side dish, or get everything on the table in less than 30 minutes with air fryer pork chops.
