Broccoli and Cauliflower Casserole main

This broccoli and cauliflower casserole can be served at holidays, potlucks, or any week night as a side dish for dinner.  Heck, it can be dinner.  It’s creamy, cheesy, and the buttery cracker topping gives it that crunch-factor.  It’s a twist on the broccoli casserole with the cream of something soup and mayonnaise but without those ingredients.  You won’t even miss them.
