Caramelised Herb Pumpkin slices

Cleaning out the refrigerator and using up all the bits and pieces is a challenge I love...I hope these recipes will inspire you to use your own imagination to create vegetables your family will be talking about at breakfast in the morning...

Sauté Celery, Zucchini and Cauliflower with fennel seed

• Baked slices of pumpkin... slice thinly and rub into both sides, olive oil and heaps of herbs both fresh and dried... I have used here fresh parsley, coriander, mint and rosemary along with dried dill and black pepper... bake turning once until caramelised and golden brown.
• Sauté celery, zucchini and cauliflower in a mixture of melted butter with a dash of avocado oil and fennel seeds until softened and cooked through.
• Mashed potato and sweet potato with butter and cream.
• Caramelised red onion with fresh ginger... cook very slowly some sliced red onion, heaps of fresh finely chopped ginger, a little brown sugar, a slosh of balsamic vinegar and a little olive oil... this cooking process takes about 20-30 minutes but worth it for intense sweet result.
• Steam some spinach straight from the garden.
