Way to go Jack ally our suggestions sound good ! also try

Make a white sauce and put in the tinned veg excluding the tomatoes - add a grating of nutmeg and make a big parcel with your puff pastry - really nice served with with something like chutney

Make a veggie curry with the butternut squash,potatoes and some of the tinned veg.

oooohhhhhh yum!!!!!!

By the way jack I did decide to make a butternut squash soup tonight....and added the tinned tomatoes and an onion which was hiding in my fridge veg drawer and finally added just a dash of tobasco sauce for a little bit of a kick.
Thanks for the inspiration.....(so it was a butternut squash/tomatoe soup)

hey pasta your idea for a veggie curry is great....(good for wintery nights brrrr) ...I've never made (or indeed even eaten ) a veg curry and it's worth a try.

And woozer - i've also never eaten (or even thought of) veggies wrapped in pastry to make a "parcel"....

Yum, yum, yum......



PS - when the firdge is finaaly bare though I really need to make an effort to get to the supermarket...just don't feel like the crowds at the mo....

And woozer

Could make a cottage pie with the mince or make some meatballs and use them to make pasta and meatballs
