Tonight was one when I literally had to work with what I had - in the fridge and in my head. My usually well-planned weekly menu was not going according to plan. Partly my fault, partly not.

When I checked out the pantry after a long, but happily productive day in the office, this is what I had to work with: butternut, mushrooms, some lovely mozzarella, cauliflower and two baby potatoes. There were also the makings of salad, garlic, garden herbs and a single masher of bacon.

Anyone who knows me, my answer to most challenges is to roast or sauté. Make of that what you will! Anyhow, we ended up with cumin-roasted cauliflower and a salad that a companied a roasted butternut round, topped with sautéed mushrooms and garlic, on to which I sprinkled fresh origanum with some red onion rings before topping that with a goodly dollop of grated mozzarella and bacon (or not - for the veggies). All that went under the grill for about twenty minutes, during which time I made a salad. The end result?

Palatable enough to be sharing here!
