Classic cold weather comforter - 'cauliflower au' gratin' was always such a treat at our dinner table growing up - so easy and warming for your heart! One cup of raw cauliflower provides 77% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin C!!

We just love GOOD tomatoes! Rich red, plump, juicy and full of flavour, a good tomato can make your day. It's hard to beat a ripe tomato, sliced in half with a generous sprinkle of good salt. We often keep a tomato sauce in the fridge too, which we make simply by frying off some onion and garlic with olive oil, and adding a bucket of overripe tomatoes. In a couple of hours she's ready and we've got tomato sauce for the week! Tomatoes are one of the lowest calorie vegetables around, they are also very low in fat contents and have zero cholesterol levels. They are an excellent source of antioxidants, dietary fibre, minerals, and vitamins. Technically speaking, a tomato is classified as a fruit - but as foodies, we like to group it together with other savoury delights, so here we are choosing to classify it as a vegetable - hope you don't mind 🙂

A hardy, fast growing vine that is one of the most widely cultivated foods on the planet. Very low in calories, no saturated fats or cholesterol & rich in dietary fiber, anti-oxidants, minerals, & vitamins. Makes an awesome dip when roasted & blended with yoghurt, fresh chilli and tarragon.

Perfectly imperfect carrots for eating, juicing or carrot cake 🙂
