Hidden Veggies

Although this collection of recipes is called hidden veggie recipes, I'm not actually, a huge fan of the term. I like to think of these recipes not as hidden vegetable recipes but as bonus veg recipes! We could all do with eating more vegetables!

Some of the most popular hidden veggie meals are my healthy mac and cheese, chicken pasta bake and veggie-loaded lasagna

I also have baking and snack recipes including veggie slice, zucchini slice, abc muffins and smoothies for kids.
