Before starting, preheat the oven to 350˚F. Wash and dry all produce. While roast is in the oven, cut larger broccoli and cauliflower florets into bite-sized pieces so pieces are uniform in size. (TIP: Equal-sized veggies will cook more evenly.)Add broccoli, cauliflower, 2 tbsp oil, 2 tbsp water, 1/4 tsp pepper and 1/2 tsp garlic salt to an unlined baking sheet, then toss to coat.
Roast broccoli and cauliflower in the bottom of the oven, tossing halfway through, until tender, 32-34 min.When veggies are done, remove from the oven and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
Once mash is finished, make cheese sauce. Heat a medium pot over medium heat.When hot, add 1 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp flour (reserved from mushroom gravy). Cook, whisking occasionally, until mixture is combined, 1-2 min. (TIP: Scan the QR code for a how-to video!)Gradually whisk in 1 cup cream until no lumps remain. Bring to a gentle simmer, whisking occasionally.
When simmering, add cheddar, Parmesan, Dijon, 1/4 tsp pepper and 1/2 tsp garlic salt. Whisk until cheese melts.Remove the pot from heat. Cover and set aside until ready to serve.Move on to finishing mushroom-thyme gravy.
When ready to serve, heat the pot with cheese sauce over medium. Warm, whisking occasionally, until sauce is a pourable consistency again. (TIP: If cheese sauce thickens too much, whisk in 1 tbsp water at a time to loosen.)Transfer broccoli and cauliflower to a serving platter.Drizzle cheese sauce over top, then sprinkle with crispy shallots.
