Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by spraying it generously with cooking spray.
  2. In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the fresh cauliflower and broccoli florets, cooking for about 3–4 minutes until slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, and milk. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, blending until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the drained cauliflower and broccoli into the creamy sauce. Stir in half of the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Top with remaining cheddar cheese and panko breadcrumbs.
  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until bubbly around the edges and golden brown on top.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh chopped green onions.
