With 1kg carrots, chunk of pumpkin, two brocolli, one cauliflower and some tomatoes.What can I make?
Considering a cashew nut and carrot loaf, but lack the 1.5 tsp carraway seeds the recipe calls for - is this a necessary?
Also wondering about a pumpkin soup... I do have some cream and some soft cheese needing to be used up.
TIA

You could leave the carraway seeds out, but it will taste slightly different.
easy pumpkin soup: chop 1 onion finely and chop pumpkin into pieces, cook together in a little salted water until soft enough to mash. Drain most of the water off and mash. Add enough milk and some cream (if you have) to give a nice soup consistency (not too thin). Add a dash of nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste. Reheat but do not boil.

the broccoli and cauli could be made into a casserole. 1 onion chopped, cauli and or broccoli 1 tin 450g creamed corn salt and pepper to taste 1 cup grated cheese white sauce cook cauli/broccoli in a little salt boiling water until cooked to how you like them. saute onion, make a white sauce using some of the liquid from the cauli to the white sauce add the corn, most of the cheese and cauli/broccoli mix and season to taste. Pour into a casserole dish and top with a crumble mix using rolled oats, butter or marge, breadcrumbs and the rest of the cheese. bake at 180C until the topping is nice and golden and cheese melted.
