Creating Keto Broccoli and Cauliflower Au Gratin with Sausage is simple and straightforward. Follow these steps to make this delicious dish:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

5. Add Cheese: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the cheddar and mozzarella cheese until melted and smooth.

7. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
8. Add Parmesan Topping: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top for added flavor and a crispy finish.
9. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
