    I've just made a vegetable soup for tea.

    1x can baked beans. 2x cans chopped tomatoes. 1 x can mixed bean salad.
    1x can green lentil. Handful of lentils. 2 large leeks
    2x medium onions. 2 x medium carrots. 1 x sweet potato
    2 x veg/beef/chicken stock cubes. Enough stock to cover the veg's. Mixed herbs. Salt and pepper.
    2 x parsnips.

    1. Prepare vegetables by peeling and cut into chunks.
    2. Make up your stock and put it to boil and put all the ingredients in pan/ large stew pot, I had to use a lge pan and huge stew pot. Add enough water to cover the ingredients and boil, then simmer for about 25-30 mins or until the vegetables are soft.
    3. Either blend or leave chunky.

    This soup can be put in soup freezer bags and frozen.

    I did put in a swede as well. Hope you enjoy.

    Not yet
    Though K suggested trying it with two steamer pans over a bin. .....
    The theory being that the garlic would peel and the 'paper' would fall through the holes in the steamer into the bin - he hasn't tried it yet.

    I might just have to try the original method though - just to see if it works.

    As for the weekend - got tomorrow off - but gotta work sunday

    xx

    Aubergine and spinach bake

    This dish is popular at BBQs!
    Ingredients: Olive oil or vegetable oil, 1 reasonable size aubergine, spinach leaves, tin of chopped tomatoes, tin of tomato puree, basil pesto, mozarella (or really any cheese that melts) optional: cream cheese, fresh basil, dried basil, cumin, chilli
    You will need: a deep dish about 30cm long suitable for oven cooking, and a wok or large nonstick saucepan.

    Preheat the oven to 180.
    Slice the aubergine quite thinly and add to the wok/saucepan, fry off with plenty of olive oil/vegetable oil, salt and pepper and sprinkle optional spices or herbs (basil, cumin and chilli, or all three) and fresh basil.
    Add a couple of spoons of basil pesto and about 4 spoons of tomato puree and mix well so the aubergine is covered in the mixture. Add the chopped tomatoes, a few handfuls of spinach leaves and mix well, adding approx half a pint of water. Optional: stir in two large spoonfuls of cream cheese.
    Let them mixture simmer for about 5-10 mins while your prepare your cheese for the topping.
    Pour the mixture into the dish and add the cheese to the top. Add some fresh basil to the top.
    Bake in the oven for 10-20mins until the cheese is brown.

    You can also do this with pasta... add dried pasta at the same time as the spinach and be sure that the pasta is soft before putting into the oven.
