This wonderful vegetable dish, with a touch of curry, has been served in our home for the past decade on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Even folks who say they don't like broccoli or cauliflower enjoy this casserole. It's one of my favorites!

This was a very good dish. I might leave the jam out next time. I'm going to turn the left overs into a cream soup. I make a very similar sauce for a chicken dish. I like the swiss cheese flavor and love using curry.
