Last night, we had the Boy Oliver’s Pasta Bake – the one that’s been on the television ads, I added a yellow pepper, as we had one in the fridge that was going wrinkly. And we had no fresh red chillis, only green, so we deseeded a dried one and used that. My *word*, it was hot – even perlmonger thought so. But very nice indeed.
I also managed to use up the hateful beetroot, in a chocolate beetroot cake, which was very nice indeed, much nicer than you might think. Should the ghastly red beets even turn up again, I know what to do with them.
Large pot of lentil, veg and tomato soup also constructed, to assist in fending off the traditional Easter snowstorms.
YMMV but I like red beets roasted, perhaps with some balsamic.
I don’t. I hate the smell of them.
BTW: you have an “Unknown LJ Tag” – delete this when fixed.
bah – fixed. Thanks.
That would be a sticking point, wouldn’t it. 🙂
I made one a few years ago and it was delicious, but The Others[1] refused to eat it and eventually I had to Throw Some Away, so I’ve never made it since.
[1] Peasants!
we had celery cake made like carrot cake recently – delicious with maple frosting; that might work for the beets if you were somehow (well, I know) not in the mood for chocolate.
/me looks at mary in a puzzled fashion
yes, I *know* 😉
> know what to do with them.
