For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of half-and-half. Experiment with different types of blue cheese for a unique taste. Add a sprinkle of breadcrumbs on top for extra crunch.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 2-quart casserole dish, rub with one of the garlic cloves, and sprinkle with a little salt. Set aside. (5 minutes)
02
StepHeat the half-and-half in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the thyme, bay leaf, and both garlic cloves. Remove from the heat just before it boils. (10 minutes)
03
StepPlace the leek, turnip, squash, mushrooms, and carrots into a large saucepan and fill with about 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, cover, and steam over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Drain and layer vegetables into the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle rosemary in between the layers. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle blue cheese and Gruyere cheese over the top. Strain the half-and-half and pour into the casserole. (20 minutes)
04
StepBake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until vegetables are tender and sauce is thick, about 40 minutes. Uncover for the last 20 minutes to allow the top to brown.
