Hubby is at home all this week in the evenings which is nice and I’m looking forward to it.
Today my daughter and I had a veggie frittata for lunch. It had potatoes, peas, broccoli, onion and red pepper in. 8 eggs and topped with cheese. There’s still some left which I will keep for tomorrow

Celery, Swede & Chickpea Bake
will be doing this one day this week
Ingredients
200 g swede 20p
100 g celery ⅓ a head, 20p
50 g creamed coconut 1 sachet, 25p, or use a tin of coconut milk
40 g miso paste 40p
100 g chickpeas ½ tin, drained, 17p
Topping
2 spring onions 10p
50 g bread 1 slice, 1p
10 g parsley 25p
2 tblsp olive oil 6p
Instructions
Peel and chop the swede into chunks about 1"/2.5cm
Chop the celery into 1"/2.5cm pieces. Wash thoroughly, it may have grit in the stalks
Put the vegetables in a saucepan. Add a little water and cook gently for 35 minutes.
Drain the vegetables and keep the stock
Add the coconut and miso.
Add the drained chickpeas.
Stir very well so the vegetables are coated.
Check the seasoning and add more if it needs it
Topping
Roughly chop the parsley, stalks as well
Roughly chop the bread into small cubes
Roughly chop the spring onions
Add the olive oil
Now you need to get the topping mixture really fine. Mulch it all down with a stick blender, a liquidiser or food processor until it is breadcrumb like
If you don't have any of those, keep chopping until everything is really fine
Assembly
Tip the base mixture into an oven proof dish
Spoon over the topping
Bake at 180°C / 350°F / Gas Mark 4, for 35 minutes until the topping is browned and nicely crispy.
Leftovers
Got any left? Whizz it up into soup for lunch the next day0 -
