soup!!

if you have any carrots left over - just peel and slice and freeze in single portions.. they will be much nicer than packets of frozen veg and will keep until you need them.

chop them and freeze until needed? I use both chopped as roast veg with a joint (add chunky chopped onion/shallots, corgette, sweet potatos, parsnip and anything else I fancy!)

This soup is yummy. Substitute the sweet potatoes for squash/carrots.

Halve the squash, scoop out the seeds and stuff with a precooked mix of say, rice, feta cheese, fried porcini mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes, gated carrot(!), herbs etc, wrap in foil and bake for an hour.

Sweet n sour squash cubes.

Par steam the carrots, roll in grated parmesan and bake for 15-20 mins.
