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.
