And This One's For Ronieeeeee...
... because she likes organic veg AND she asked nicely!
Today's Top Three Organic Veg Thingies:
3) Natural & Organic World Festivals. Went to one today, after seeing an advert for it on the way home from E and P's last night (great time thanks, girls!). Was good, we bought some bread, cheese and a hot pepper chutney thing that almost blew our mouths apart, and were practically forced to join The Wildlife Trusts by a sweet old guy who wouldn't take no for an answer. Well, we didn't want to say no, anyway!
2) Gordons Organic Wholegrain Mustard. If anyone wants to buy me a birthday pressie and doesn't know what to get me, I will die with sheer happiness if you get me this.
1) Beetroot and Potato Mash. By popular demand, here is the recipe!
Beetroot
Potatoes (four times as much potatoes as beetroot, depending on how much you want to make)
Salt and pepper
Basil or another herb of your choice
Olive oil (if you're vegan)
Butter/milk (if you're not)
* Simply peel, chop and boil the beetroot and potatoes in separate pans until they are cooked.
* Mash the potato, adding as much salt and pepper, herbs and olive oil/butter and milk as you feel like.
* Next, crush the beetroot with the masher (it is not physically possible to mash beetroot - believe me, I have tried!), and when it is kind of crushed enough so that it isn't too lumpy, stir it into the potato. Don't fully stir it, so that you get a cool 'marble' effect that looks like raspberry ripple ice cream, or potato with a dead animal in it, depending on how you want to look at it(!)
... Yup, I told you it was easy :o)
As you can see, I love food... just as well I'm getting back into the running, too!
