Eating And Storage Tips

You can mix the vegetables up in here to be a whole variety of things that you might be needing to use up. Bell peppers, aubergine and broccoli would all work well in here.

If you’re curious about the cheese sauce I used, or want a recipe for making one, you can see it in my shells and cheese recipe. There are cheese sauce granules or fridge fresh cheese sauces you can buy to make a quick one up if you don’t want to go to this effort for a midweek meal.

I choose not to add extra cheese to the top of this due to the amount of cheese sauce I put into the dish and with mine having Greek yoghurt in I know it is going to golden up and have some moisture come out of it. But, if you are using less sauce, feel free to grate a light smattering of cheese on top too.

A great recipe for using up excess cheese sauce or any vegetables getting close to turning – Cook some pasta, I used shells and preheat your oven to 200c – Place some chopped carrots, asparagus and courgette into a heated pan with some olive oil – After a couple of minutes add sliced mushrooms and halved cherry tomatoes. I also add in some herbs, spices and a bit of chopped tomato sauce I had left from making meatballs recently – Drain your cooked pasta and add to the vegetable mix – Place it all into an oven friendly dish and mix the cheese sauce through – Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes #food #recipe #recipevideo #cooking #cookingvideo #cookwithme #cookingwithme #simplerecipe #quickrecipe #quickfood #comfortfood #cookingathome #fypfood #foodiesoftiktok #pasta #homecook #homecooking #simplefood #foodiesofinstagram #mealswithme #vegetarian #vegetarianrecipe #cheese #midweekinspiration #dinner #dinnerideas #leftovers
