Yoghurt Fruit Ice Lollies
Did you know? 80,000 tonnes of yoghurt is wasted in the UK each year, this is a tragedy, particularly when you think about how many of these delicious ice lollies we could make with it. These lollies are a great way to save yoghurt and fruit for a later date. An amazing treat to whip out of the freezer for you and the kids at a family BBQ or garden picnic.
Banana Ice Cream
Never bin your spotted bananas again with this magic trick for turning frozen bananas into a healthy alternative to ice-cream.
Warm New Potato, Purple Sprouting Broccoli and Miso Salad with Pickled Shallots
A ridiculously tasty salad, where the sweetness of new season potatoes plays against the saltiness of miso, the acidity of pickled shallots and the crispness of roasted purple sprouting.
Locally produced seasonal food is tasty and healthy as nutrients and flavours have fully developed. Eating local foods in season offers an environmental bonus. The produce will have travelled less miles, it is less likely to be found in plastic packaging and will have needed fewer pesticides and inorganic fertilisers to grow.
Ital Jerk Tofu Kebabs
Jerk is the taste of Jamaica, and its scent rides on the cooling breeze all around the island. Legend has it that the native people of the island used to smoke their food over the wood from the allspice trees that grow all over the island. The main flavour in a jerk seasoning is, therefore, allspice, but also ginger, lime, thyme, cinnamon and Scotch Bonnet chilli peppers.
