Grated courgette

HasaDigaEebowai · 14/04/2020 16:23

I put onions, peppers, mushrooms, carrot, celery, courgette, aubergine and extra tomatoes in mine. As much as I can pack in so that the DC get a decent amount of veg with the meal.

Onions, peppers, mushrooms, celery, carrot - sometimes courgette if we've got them in.

BarkandCheese · 14/04/2020 16:31

I always put either grated carrot or courgette in mine.

Pebbles574 · 14/04/2020 16:34

grated carrot and lentils

YoureMyWifeNowDave · 14/04/2020 16:41

I put grated carrot and courgette, diced onion, mushrooms, tomatoes, butternut squash, red and green peppers and a handful of frozen sweet corn in mine, great way to get the kids to eat more veg

Zinniasout · 14/04/2020 16:45

Minced carrot, celery and onion (sofritta) then finely diced red peppers, courgettes, onions and mushrooms with passata and chopped tomatoes, garlic herbs and red wine.

yaychocolateginandwine · 14/04/2020 16:55

Grated broccoli stalk , finely chopped spinach ( I actually cut it really finely with scissors - how sad is that ? ! )

IHaveBrilloHair · 14/04/2020 16:58

Usually just carrot, onion and garlic, most people use celery but I can't stand it, but in these times I'd chuck most things in!

okiedokieme · 14/04/2020 17:04

Cut up celery, carrot and onion really finely and sauté until very soft (an hour ideally) before adding garlic and chopped tomatoes, cook for another 30 mins then add to your mince, mushroom, onions and I add courgettes

lastqueenofscotland · 14/04/2020 19:14

Surely you start it with celery, onion and carrot?

Also grated courgette, mushroom, peppers, lentils etc

ErrolTheDragon · 14/04/2020 19:19

It should always have Celery, carrot, onion and garlic. And tomatoes in some form, obviously.

Then IMO one of red peppers or mushrooms. Too many different veg loses the flavour of any (unless you're trying to 'hide' veg for kids). Courgettes don't add much taste - more delicately flavoured veg are better served separately

duddle · 14/04/2020 19:22

Carrots and petit poi's

SpringFan · 14/04/2020 19:24

Carrot, celery, onion, mushroom, garlic and tomato are essential, and courgette if I have any.
Never tried putting lentils in Spag Bol but I do add them to mousaka.

StillNoFuckingEyeDeer · 14/04/2020 19:30

Onion, celery, red pepper, grated carrot, loads of mushrooms, tomatoes and lentils. (No meat)

aladyofinderterminateage · 14/04/2020 19:53

I roast onions, courgettes, peppers and mushrooms before adding them to the tomato and beef sauce. I roast the garlic too.

GinWithASplashOfTonic · 14/04/2020 20:05

Olives, tomatoes tinned or sundried

maternityclothes · 15/04/2020 18:16

Onions
Celery
Carrots
Sundried tomatoes

Funkycats · 15/04/2020 18:19

As above! Or sometimes just a jar of dolmio.
