Marrow Madness

Marrows were in the grocer shop this morning and little one didn't know what it was, although it was apparently the perfect shape to hug. I therefore decided it was time for some stuffed marrow which was delicious in the end and myself and hubby also had it for dinner. It makes a good accompanying vegetable dish, although for adult taste you may need to season it later on.

Ingredients
1 marrow
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
1 potato, peeled and sliced
1 can chopped tomatoes
Olive Oil
6 cloves garlic

Method
Slice the marrow in half lengthways. Show little one how to scoop out the middle seeded bit. Make sure this section is put in a bowl out of site. Mine tried to grab the mush we removed and add it back in later! You can't fault his enthusiasm. Lay one half of the marrow in an oven proof dish. Paint the marrow with olive oil.

In a bowl, put the other vegetables in and mix them in with the chopped tomatoes. Put this vegetable mixture all over the marrow in the dish and strategically place the garlic cloves across the top. You could add grated cheese if you want, I didn't this time as we had cheese for lunch.

Cook in the over for about 1 hour at 180C
