Frozen vegetables

Sweet corn is botanically a fruit as its an ovum, ( same as tomato) but is also a grain when a dry seed (!) and a vegetable being a plant that is harvested to be eaten. Well that's according to Google. We live and learn...But Whatever it is it tastes good!

Cook not coin!

I'm saying nothing....

I coin petit pois in a Pyrex bowl with a lid, in the microwave, with no added water!

Well they are exceedingly sweet sometimes. I can see that it counts as a cereal when old and starchy, but maybe not when young, sweet and juicy. Lot of differences between a leathery old bit of dry corn and a succulent kernel of sweetcorn?

Agree about spinach and frozen peppers.

It's a cereal! Why would you think it might be a sweetie?

Mixed frozen peppers are useful

Those packs of frozen spinach nuggets are good for sag aloo.

If corn not a veg jo what is it? A sweetie? It does have a lot of sugars of course, but also loads of fibre.
Peas freeze brilliantly don't they and retain the sweetness that turns to starch if they are hanging around. Steam them, briefly, for the best flavour. Prefer my corn really fresh (green leaves around it) or tinned.
The other really good one is spinach. If I have a packet of frozen spinach I can just grab a handful (its in kind of nuggets) and add them to curries or soups.

I find the frozen casserole mixes invaluable in the winter. There's no point preparing onions, leeks, swede, carrots, celery etc., from scratch when there's likely to be just the two of us to feed.

I freeze my surplus veg in the summer and one batch of cauliflower will often looke whiter and plumper than another but broccoli always looks the same.

Carrots keep for ages in the fridge anyway so no point buying frozen. I buy frozen petit pois and sweetcorn but we live near enough to shops to buy fresh veg on a regular basis. I used to have frozen broccoli in when the children were little and I have broad beans in for when DH is out - lovely with new potatoes and lamb chops.

I love french beans, steamed and then stir fried with garlic and tomatoes.

I buy frozen peas, and sometimes green beans, but frozen carrots taste of nothing - same with those packets of mixed frozen veg.

Some veg seems to freeze better than others. Don't like frozen carrots. And why do they have to put sweet corn in with mixed veg? I don't consider corn to be a veg!
