Notes
*Vegetables: Package sizes may vary, so aim for about 48 ounces total (3 pounds, about 9 cups) of frozen broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots. To substitute fresh vegetables, blanch them in boiling water until tender, then drain and pat dry. You will need about 9 cups of chopped vegetables.
**Velveeta: If you don’t adore this melty, creamy, nostalgic processed cheese product, substitute homemade cheese sauce.
***Crackers: Or substitute homemade bread crumbs.
Yield: This recipe makes about 12 (1-cup servings).
Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
