Free pesto alert with the carrots!

Carrots are back! 🥕 Organic carrots locally grown taste like a carrot! But did you know you can make a simple pesto using the leafy tops?

Make sure you wash and remove any dirt from your carrot tops and add the following to a food processor.

🥕 A bunch of Carrot tops (and stalks)
🥕 50G of sunflower seeds (you can also use cashew nuts, pine nuts or pumpkin seeds, whatever you have in the cupboard)
🥕 1 garlic clove crushed
🥕 3 TBSP olive oil
🥕 1 organic lemon juiced
🥕 Pinch of salt

Blitz in a food processor and tweak, salt, lemon and garlic to taste. I will be stirring pesto through my pasta tonight. As it makes more than I need, I freeze it in ice cube trays and chuck it in mid week meals.

Enjoy!

Tomato appreciation post!
These have to be the best tasting tomatoes ever. My customers report back addictions to poping them like sweets!

They get used in everything although my favourites are tomato toast and pasta. Summer puff pastry pies are also delicious 😋

They will now be back until the autumn.

I have been a little bit quiet on social media. It is hard running the business independently and delivering in my van takes hours out of the day.

What inspiration would you like to see? More recipes? What I eat is plant based to balance fibre and protein maybe more on that? Or anything else?

Supporting local farmers is so important and no pesticides and nasties in organic. Just great tasting veggies delivered each week (or bi weekly)
