Guest Post: Alison’s Leftovers

You really did ask what we had for dinner last night!! – Leftovers!!

As usual I way overbought for Easter entertaining, so had lots and lots of vegetables left. Two packets of mixed veg (not frozen) which I blasted in the microwave for a few minutes. I also cooked and chopped up a few baby potatoes for substance. A very rich cheese sauce was added to that, topped with breadcrumbs blitzed in the food processor with some cheese (we love our cheese!). I sprinkled some (leftover) pumpkin seeds over the top, baked it at 380 deg. C. for about 30 minutes, until it was hot, bubbling and gorgeously golden, and served it with chicken schnitzels (to appease the meateaters in the family).

It really was a throw together, but actually tasted really good, I surprised myself!!
