Excess of: broccoli, carrots, celery, green beans, houmous, blueberries, spread, butter and, erm, crisps. Ideas...?

Long story - basically stupidity on my part.

Crisps (duplicate order for DD1's party) are PomBears and Hula Hoops - somehow I feel there may be a dearth of recipes for these ...

Thanks littlerach & MS, good ideas. I'm using everything up as fast as poss as part of meals etc but was thinking maybe of turning some of them into things that can be frozen - maybe carrot mash, blueberry muffins if I can find the time ...

Apparently you can freeze butter

Was thinking I could make some veg purees, but I suppose that's just carrots again

broccoli and green beans in pasta with pesto. Yum.
Stir-fries
Use carrots, celery and some onions chopped very fine and sweated for 15 mins or so as a soffrito - base for tomato sauce, bolognese, lasagne sauce, etc
Hummus very nice as a kind of veg puree with morroccan style lamb
Butter lasts for ages. Make some pastry cases and freeze them.
blueberries - muffins, eat in porridge, make smoothies
Crush hula hoops (I don't know what pom bears are!) and use as topping for (say) tuna pasta bake (with cheese) or as a coating for chicken nugget type things.

Brilliant Habbibu - especially the crushed-Hula-Hoops-as-coating suggestion - inspired! Thanks
