Fermented pumpkin and apple soda
A probiotic (that means it’s full of good bacteria) soda that’s delicious on its own or used as an autumnal mocktail or cocktail mixer.
Thai pumpkin soup
This Thai pumpkin soup is an easy autumn warmer. It's a great way to use up the flesh from carved pumpkins around Halloween. You can go as spicy as you like by changing the amount of Thai red curry paste you use. Use the toasted pumpkin seeds to garnish and make it extra special. You can also chuck in leftover veg (or meat) that needs using up.
Apple and ginger chutney
This warming Christmas accompaniment combines apple and ginger to give a kick. It is ideal for using up windfall apples or just for an apple glut! Tried and tested many times – that addition of ginger, garlic and pickling spice give a great flavour.
Brussels sprout detox salad
"My fridge is piled high with brussel sprouts ready for christmas dinner. I don’t know about you but I get bored of eating them boiled. If you have any sprouts leftover after christmas dinner then they are delicious raw. This recipe is a welcome break from the usual christmas fare and is a delicious light and healthy meal." Eco-chef Tom Hunt.
