Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°. Cook broccoli and cauliflower according to package directions; drain.

Meanwhile, in a small skillet, melt 2 teaspoons butter. Add bread crumbs; cook and stir over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove from heat.

In a large saucepan, melt remaining butter over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in cheeses until blended. Stir in ham, pepper and vegetables.

Transfer to a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Sprinkle with toasted crumbs. Bake, uncovered, 10-15 minutes or until heated through.
