• Tip the spinach into a large saucepan, add 2 tbsp water and cook with the lid on over a low heat for 3-4 mins until wilted, then tip into a sieve and press the excess moisture out of it with the back of a wooden spoon. Set aside.
• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Melt the butter in a saucepan over a low heat until foaming, then stir in the flour to create a thick paste. Cook for 2 mins, remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the milk in several additions until lump-free. Return to the heat and whisk until thickened. Whisk in the mustard, most of the cheese and the chives. Season to taste.
• Arrange the vegetables, including the cauliflower leaves, in a medium ovenproof dish. Pour over the sauce, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 25-30 mins or until golden and bubbling.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Spray a 2 quart baking dish well with non-stick spray.
• Cook the vegetables until just barely done; they will cook more in the baking process.
• Drain and set aside to cool as you continue.
• Using a blender, make the toast into crumbs; set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of the butter or margarine and the oil on a medium heat; saute the onions in the butter and oil until transparent.
• Add the soup, milk, mustard powder and salt and pepper and cook, whisking very often, until the mixture is bubbly, thickened, and a bit reduced; remove from heat.
• Put the vegetables in a large bowl, then stir in the sauce mixture, about 2 tablespoons of the bread crumbs, and 1/2 cup shredded cheese; blend well.
• Spoon mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and combine well with the remaining bread crumbs.
• Mix in the remaining cheese and sprinkle the mixture evenly over the vegetables.
• Bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the mixture is heated through and the top is browned.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Thinly slice the parsnips, butternut squash, potatoes, and Kroger Brand Brussels Sprouts on a mandoline or with a very sharp knife. Transfer each vegetable to a separate medium bowl.
• Add ½ cup cream, 1 ounce Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon thyme, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper to each bowl, and toss until the vegetables are well coated.
• Grease a 3-quart baking dish on all sides with the butter. Pour the remaining ½ cup cream into the bottom of the baking dish. Stir in the garlic and leek until evenly distributed, then sprinkle with 1 ounce of Parmesan.
• Arrange the sliced vegetable in the baking dish, alternating between vegetables, by stacking a few slices together and fanning out at an angle in the dish. Continue arranging in rows until the dish is filled, tucking smaller slices into any gaps. Sprinkle more salt and pepper and the remaining ounce of Parmesan over the top.
• Cover the dish with foil, then bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened. Cover again with foil if the top is browning too quickly.
• Remove the gratin from the oven and top with the Gruyère cheese.
• Turn the oven to broil. Return the gratin to the oven and broil for 3-5 minutes, or until browned and bubbling on top. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5-10 minutes.
• Before serving, sprinkle with the remaining ½ teaspoon of thyme.
• Enjoy!
