Cooking Steps

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Finely chop brown onion and garlic. Thinly slice celery. Roughly tear kale leaves (see ingredients), then discard stem. Cut potato and carrot into small chunks. • Place potato and carrot on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays.

Little cooks: Don your goggles and have a go at peeling off the onion's outer layer!

• Meanwhile, heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook diced bacon, celery and onion, breaking up bacon with a spoon, until golden, 4-5 minutes.

• Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and vegetable stock pot. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook until slightly thickened, 10-12 minutes.

• Cut or tear bake-at-home ciabatta (see ingredients) into bite-sized chunks. • Place ciabatta chunks on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with shredded Cheddar cheese and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. • Bake until golden, 5-7 minutes.

Little cooks: Lend a hand by tearing the ciabatta and tossing it with the olive oil and seasonings!
