Side Dish Recipe ∘ California Vegetable Bake

California vegetables (broccoli, carrots and cauliflower) covered with easy cream and cheese sauce topped with Ritz® crackers. Very easy and always a big hit.

Ingredients

• 2 (20 ounce) bags California-blend frozen vegetables
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup chopped onion
