Experiment a little & add or change veggies around. Try potato slice, carrot slice, pumpkin slice, sweet potato slice. And enjoy the meal yourself too!! Add fresh chilli to spice it up, the ideas can be endless
You can cook a large batch of food up, bag in into meal size freezer bags & freeze them. Thaw them only as you need them.
The amount of ingredients depends on how
much you intend to make for the birds. y
The preparation for this can take time so you
can cook up large batches & freeze them in
meal size portions. You should scrub the veg
before pealing, remove the eyes from the
potato. The softest bristle brush you can find
will be fine to wash the zucchini. Never used
the plastic man made cheese for your birds.
Grate all veg & put together. Add flour, milk &
egg so you have a thick consistency. Place in
a pie or flan dish or muffin pan & bake.

Cooked food is not a highly nutritious food. Once the veggies are boiled or microwave they can lose a lot of their nutritional value. You can still offer your birds cooked food. It is something they thoroughly enjoy eating but you can't make it a large part of their diets.
As an alternative to cooking the veggies you can grate them & blanch them for 5 minutes in hot water. This will retain the nutritional value. You can also leave them at they are, fresh grated & add them to cooked rice & egg.
