Delicious! And so healthy too, unless you're like me and want to add some cheese on top just before baking :) I made two of these, one pureed until smooth, and one until still a bit chunky, just to see what would happen. Liked both - and they freeze very well! Will def make again. Thanks English Rose, you've posted lots of great veg recipes!

I live in Manchester, UK with my fiance and young son. I work at the local hospital in pediatrics and love my job. I also love cooking!! I have a sweet tooth but try and make healthy family meals, I'm not against some lovely treats now and then though :)
