with Rosie at LoveJars
Our recipe section has a range of home-style cooking and meal ideas to use those delicious organic vegetables you have worked so hard to grow. Now time to reap the benefits!
You can of course, use our recipes as a guide and tweak them to suit your own tastes. They are in the main, written by somebody who loves food and doesn't measure anything (Carrie) so we hope you enjoy our 'rustic' take on the selection of dishes here. We have recipes by vegetable, fruit, nuts or herbs and soups, which are extremely versatile as well as some fabulous and inspiring Canning & Preserving recipes and information from our lovely friend at LoveJars - Rosie.
You can also submit your recipes and we will share them on our Growers' Recipes section!
A fruity start to the day that isn't jam!
As well as a refreshing change at breakfast time, this makes a wonderful dessert too!
You can top off with nuts, cream or Greek yoghurt - Or your own choice.
Please note that our recipes are an approximate guideline - Quantities along with ingredients are totally adaptable to suit personal taste, consistency and density as well as portion sizes.
