# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Vegetables

01 - 2 cups broccoli florets, fresh or frozen
02 - 2 cups cauliflower florets, fresh or frozen

→ Protein

03 - 14 ounces turkey sausage, sliced

→ Cheese

04 - 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

08 - 2 large eggs

→ Seasoning

09 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
10 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly coat a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
02 - Steam broccoli and cauliflower florets until just tender, approximately 5 minutes if fresh or 3 minutes if thawed from frozen. Drain thoroughly.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, combine steamed vegetables, sliced turkey sausage, 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, and all the grated Parmesan cheese.
04 - In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, sour cream, eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well blended.
05 - Pour egg mixture over the broccoli and sausage mixture. Gently stir until all ingredients are evenly coated.
06 - Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
07 - Scatter the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
08 - Place dish in oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the casserole is bubbling and the cheese topping is golden brown.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Ensure vegetables are well drained before combining to prevent excess moisture in the finished bake.
02 - Cheese topping can be browned further under the broiler for a crisp finish, if desired.
