Tip

You could add more or less cheese in the cheese sauce depending on your preferences (and how healthy you want it to be). Also, give the cheese sauce a little stir before pouring over.

I have a picture too but for some reason it won't upload for me. I'll keep trying and hopefully get it up soon.

    Used chilli cheese for the sauce. Also, cut the asparagus spears into 3 pieces. Used grated parmesan on top. I think this is a very forgiving recipe, and you could flavour your dish by using different cheeses, or soup mixes in your sauce. I put my butterfly whisk in my varoma, then put the vegies on top. All steamed very well, no extra time needed. Also, I made this in the TM5.Smile

  • Good basis for any vege bake.

    Good basis for any vege bake. Needs salt and pepper seasoning I felt and I added spring onions and paprika on top as I was worried it was going to lack flavour. Next time would probably add a bit of onion in the bake itself and maybe some bacon....but I will use this again as the base for a vege bake. Thank you tmrc_emoticons.)

    I chucked some French Oniou soup mix in the soup as well for a bit more flavour.  Otherwise yummy.
