Turn bits of leftover veg like broccoli and carrots, even the stalks and carrot tops, into a delicious vegan friendly canape or snack option. Leave out the feta if you'd like to make it vegan.
Broccoli stalks are the often discarded, unappreciated part of a great vegetable.
They are surprisingly nutritious and taste incredible too (they actually contain more calcium, iron and vitamin c than the florets.
Also using would be waste for canapes is a great talking point and will give your guests something interesting to chew over.
