....without my DH noticing?!!

I'm trying to get my fmaily to eat more veg as we were terrible at eating healthy while i was feeling depressed, now im better i want to sort it out!!

Saturday i made homemade shepards pie with grated carrot in it, and purreed broccoli, swede and celery, he didnt even notice.

What do you think i could add to the chilcken tikka masala we'r having tonight that he wont notice?! I put sweetcorn with it anyway but what else is there?!?!

diced mushrooms are v hard to spot, or go for the grated carrot again.
Spinach can also work as it cooks down to almost nothing in the sauce.

Thanks mrs badger, will pick up some mushroom and spinach!

personally i dont like veg in my curry, but would quite happily have it as a side dish, is there something that you could make as a side dish??

i usually whizz onion celery and carrot into paste before making most things.

sweet potato would be nice.
