Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.

• Wash cauliflower and broccoli dividing into florets. Cook until just tender by boiling or steaming. Cook about 10 minutes. Wash and slice leeks into thin rings. Add to pan with cooking cauliflower and broccoli for the last 2 or 3 minutes.
• While the vegetables are cooking, melt 2 TBS butter in a 1 qt saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour, and stir and cook for about a minute.
• Mix the milk with the water, and slowly add to the pan with the butter and the flour, stirring constantly. Cook over medium-low heat until thickened, stirring frequently. (This produces a medium white sauce.).
