2 ½ cups milk
2½ cups grated cheddar cheese
½ cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions
- Cook the provisions just until tender. Peel and cut into chunks. Place in a large bowl and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the onions and sweet pepper. Cook for 1 – 2 minutes. Add the garlic, all-purpose seasoning and green seasoning: cook for 1 minute being careful not to burn. Season with a little salt and black pepper.
- Add the flour and stir well. Cook for a minute or two. Add the milk and continue to stir continuously until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
- Add the grated cheeses. Mix well until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Stir in the mustard, pepper sauce and a touch more salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Add the cheese sauce to the cooked provisions. Mix well. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Top with extra grated cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 – 25minutes or until the top is golden brown. Remove and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
