Veggie leftovers bake

Tonight I'm trying not to waste any food, so a waste prevention project is in order!
Out of this initiative supper quick and easy leftovers veggie bake was born.

Super quick & easy leek potato carrot and sweetcorn veggie leftover bake

Ingredients for 2 hungry individuals:
4 medium potatoes peeled and very thinly sliced
1 leek cut roughly "sliced"
2 medium size carrots thinly sliced
1/2 small tin of sweetcorn (drained)
small single cream
100ml of milk
spices: chilli flakes, 2 veggie oxo cubes, salt & pepper
quarter of feta cheese
grated parmesan, cheddar or any other hard cheese

Mix single cream with milk add all spices (make sure that oxo cubes are crumbled). In a flat baking tray put a single layer of potatoes and cover with half of leek and carrot slices. Then arrange the next layer of potatoes and cover with remained leek and carrot slices. Spread the sweetcorn evenly and pour over the creamy mixture. Crumble over feta cheese and sprinkle grated cheese (as little or as much as you like) I had smoked goats cheese which wasn't great on its own but tastes really well in the bake as it has a distinctive salty taste like feta. 
Bake for 30 minutes in 180C (fan assisted). Check with a knife if potatoes are cooked thoroughly.  This all was ready for consumption in around 45min. including baking time, if you have a helping hand (a husband or other contractually obliged individual) even in 40minutes:-)

The picture is rubbish but I only realised at the last moment that all the bake was wolfed down and the last bit I had to snatch away from the lion's den, I mean my husband's mouth;) Otherwise no record would exist:) It may not look that appetising from this but in fact it is very tasty...
