This Broccoli & Cauliflower Gratin dish is made using yogurt instead of the regular white sauce or Benchamel sauce. This way you can cut down on some of the fats, and make it more healthy. It is still rich and creamy. Spoon the yogurt and cheese mixture over the broccoli and cauliflower florets and top with breadcrumbs.
