24th December

Our last stop on the vegetable tour today! It’s Christmas tomorrow! Make sure you have this one in your trolley today, it’s tradition after all. But don’t forget about these after Christmas, if they are cooked fresh and not for too long (preferably steamed), they don’t need to have quite a strong a taste. OneContinue reading “24th December”

23rd December

A long time ago, my mum was in hospital for her Christmas dinner, she said it was the best Christmas because not only had she just had a baby but she didn’t have to cook the turkey! Whether Christmas dinner fills you with dread or makes you excited, there is often the question of whatContinue reading “23rd December”

22nd December

Twas the Friday before Christmas and all through the country people were panicking that they hadn’t done all their Christmas shopping… Are you ready for Christmas? It is ok if you are not. Today’s vegetable is in season although we are nearing the end of the season. It is in the cabbage family. Did youContinue reading “22nd December”

21st December

If you work Monday to Friday you have just today and tomorrow left in work. Most work places are full of high fat and high sugar treats which tempt us to eating far too much. This vegetable has often been seen as a weight loss aid because it is low in calories and high inContinue reading “21st December”

20th December

With the boy’s school finishing today and all the festivities at the end of term, they are exhausted, which means tempers run high and the need for something quick and easy to cook in the way of veg is essential. Frozen vegetables have come a long way since they were first sold. Now vegetables areContinue reading “20th December”

19th December

Christmas is a time when we remember a baby born a long time ago and a star which appeared in the sky. The sky has fascinated many for generations but what do you need to get up into space?   A rocket! Well you won’t get far on salad leaves when it comes to spaceContinue reading “19th December”

18th December

Only a week until Christmas. For many of us, we have already started consuming Christmas treats and perhaps our capacity to eat our 5 a day seems diminished. Our bodies need our 5 a day more than it needs the Christmas treats though so the challenge is to prioritise. I’m not saying no to ChristmasContinue reading “18th December”

17th December

Due to global trade we are fortunate enough to have access to fruit and veg we can’t grow here in winter. This vegetable is in fact very easy to grow in the UK – even in Manchester!) but not in December. Perhaps it is something to think about for next year. If you have aContinue reading “17th December”

15th December

Yesterday and today I had the privilege of being able to watch my boys in their school plays. A wonderful reminder of the Christmas story and why we are celebrating this Christmas. School is such an important part of a child’s life. It can shape their experiences throughout life. Hopefully their experiences are good. SadlyContinue reading “15th December”

14th December

If you are anything like me you will always fill your shopping basket with the same vegetable. This one is an essential for packed lunches. Quickly wash, top and tail them and pop them in. They have a great peppery taste and they are brightly coloured too. Radish Radishes are a good source of fibre,Continue reading “14th December”
