It's certainly different Cookie - have never seen the HB show but know of them.

We rarely watch it Judy but there is so much rubbish on tv at the moment that DH has resorted to watching them. DD and I read or play on our ipads. We don't have foxtel.

We had it with a casserole, sort of as as a vegetable as I didn't put the eggs in it. I think if you put the eggs in it could be a meal as you would be getting protein.

Sounds interesting Cookie, will have to give it a try.  We love leeks not to mention the good old staple potatoes.
