So I survived my first week alone post surgery and my 39th birthday. Whew! I should probably be posting a celebratory treat today, but instead I’ve got this savory Turmeric Cauliflower Broccoli Gratin. There’s been a lot of goodies around here lately. When I get on a pumpkin role, I just can’t help myself.

Between pumpkin chocolate oatmeal cookies, chocolate almond pumpkin muffins, sugar free pumpkin bread), I’m beginning to feel like a personal bakery, only without paying customers. HA! So…a savory dish was in order and I’m guessing you need something good for Thanksgiving and this Turmeric Cauliflower Broccoli Gratin is really good.

I haven’t gained any weight post surgery. Honestly, I have no idea where I’m putting this stuff but I know it will catch up with me if I don’t tighten up the nutrition. Now that I’m {old -lol} walking more I need to eat better so I can kill it in the gym. People still can’t believe I had my hip replaced a month ago. They look at me like I’m super human. My theory is the mind-body connection is greater than most people realize.

Okay, enough about me already. We’ve got Turmeric Cauliflower Broccoli Gratin on deck today.

You know how much I love my roasted garlic cauliflower mash. If you come to my house for a holiday, it’s guaranteed to be on the menu. In fact, I even tricked my Dad into thinking it was potatoes last year. Muahahah!

This year I fancied up that recipe by turning it into a rich, decadent casserole with white wine. It gives the dish a bit of tang and balances the cumin, turmeric and thyme in the background. The flavors really pop! I know it looks and there are several steps in the directions, but honestly it’s an easy dish. If you can turn on the oven and put vegetables on a baking sheet, then you can make this. No excuses not to eat those veggies. Mmk?
