Mixed Vegetable Pie recipe
This is a handy recipe if you've got a lot of vegetables in
the fridge, but aren't sure what you can make with them.
It's also a handy meal to cook ahead and cook
later in the oven (although you'll need to add around 10
minutes to the cooking time for it to warm through
thoroughly).

If you like you can spice this up a
little by adding a little chopped, cooked
bacon.
For the vegetables, you can
use just about anything you've got in the fridge or
larder, as long as the flavour isn't
very strong.
Choosing vegetables which
have a low glycemic index (GI)is far better as part of a
diabetic diet, than higher GI foods.
