Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Cook broccoli and cauliflower in a large saucepan of boiling, salted, water for 8 to 10 minutes or until soft. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid.
Heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add garlic, chilli and thyme. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until fragrant. Add broccoli, cauliflower and reserved cooking liquid. Reduce heat to low. Cook, covered, for 15 minutes or until vegetables have softened and liquid evaporated. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in 1/2 cup carbonara sauce.
Pour 1/2 cup pasta sauce over base of an 8 cup-capacity, 5.5cm-deep (base) ovenproof dish. Spoon or pipe broccoli mixture into cannelloni. Arrange filled cannelloni, in a single layer, over pasta sauce. Top with remaining pasta sauce.
Spread remaining carbonara sauce over pasta sauce. Sprinkle with cheeses. Bake for 40 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Stand for 10 minutes. Serve with salad leaves.
Notes
You can find carbonara sauce in the fresh pasta section of supermarkets. Super saver: Use 1 1/2 cups bottled carbonara sauce instead of fresh sauce and save around $2.64 in total.
