I like that smoked salmon dauph with fennel and celeriac to use up fennel.

Ooh yes, thanks kiwi. I can get on board with that.
My veg box has stressed me out this week. I literally had an entire night, last night, dreaming about what to do with the bloody BNS.

That sounds good too, cluef, thanks. I'm getting a million fennel heads, I expect, in the near future so it's good to have a bank of ideas.

I just got M to prepare the globe artichokes that we got last week thinking we'd have artichoke pizza. Let's just say we will now be having pizza with the merest whiff of artichoke. What a useless vegetable!

Re: Weekly meals plan
Oh no. They're like (live) crabs, by the time you're finished prepping them, you've got three bin bags of waste, a thimble of dinner, and no wish to look at them anymore anyway, never mind eat them. I like both better if someone else has done the work.
It's too early for BNS (in my head, not criticising the veg box's approach to seasonality ). I'd be happy with one when it's more autumnal and I'm all about mushrooms and warm spices. Now, please let me have tomatoes, peas and big bunches of herbs for a little longer, please.

Re: Weekly meals plan
Yeah, we gamely prepped and ate our artichokes last time and agreed we’d just put them straight in the compost next time.

They are rubbish aren't they.
I agree that it is too early for BNS, it is for soup and warming stuff.

I have bought 3 cauliflowers as they were on offer and now I have no excuse for falling back on rice or pasta

Re: Weekly meals plan
I riced one (for "fried rice" http://www.eatingwell.com/recipe/254623 ... ried-rice/ which was great - I've not tried boiling it in water yet), and froze half of that which is also an experiment .FiveO'Clock wrote: ↑Mon Sep 07, 2020 1:26 amWhat did you end up making with them PG? I have two in my fridge and am looking for inspiration.
One has been put into a chickpea dahl which is also great - you're supposed to serve rice alongside it so instead I added in tiny florets so it's a one pot dish.
I made these https://healthiersteps.com/recipe/cauli ... uten-free/ which I found fantastic, really delicious (I think these were Wendy's recommendation).
Plus https://leelalicious.com/cauliflower-cu ... ound-beef/ where again I put a whole cauli in and then served without rice.
The calorie difference with rice is amazing!
