Tips:
- Select Quality Veggies: Choose fresh, crisp vegetables for the best flavor and texture. Bell peppers, mushrooms, and broccoli work well, but you can use any veggies you like.
- Prepare Vegetables Properly: Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces so they cook evenly. Blanching firmer vegetables like broccoli and carrots briefly in boiling water helps retain their color and crispness.
- Make a Flavorful Cheese Sauce: Use a blend of sharp cheddar and Parmesan cheeses for a rich, cheesy flavor. Add some Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce for extra depth of flavor.
- Cook Veggies to Perfection: Sauté the vegetables over medium heat until they are tender but still have a slight bite. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Serve Immediately: Veggies with cheese gravy are best served hot. Sprinkle with chopped parsley or chives for a pop of color and freshness.
