This week we have our delicious broccoli salad recipe for you. We have included all the fresh ingredients in our £25 and £15 boxes along with dried cranberries and a nut/seed mix. You will just need to add oil/mayonnaise/honey/soy sauce/mustard/apple cider vinegar. A perfect summer salad, which tastes even better the next day.
We are spoilt for choice this week, lots of British seasonal produce is now available. We have chosen a new washed potato grown by Garden Of Elveden who are a specialist fresh potato company based on a 22,500 acre Estate in the heart of the East Anglian farming region. Their salad potato varieties have been carefully selected for their thin skins, waxy texture and sweeter taste. Delicious on their own or with a knob of butter and fresh mint, these salad potatoes can be cooked to enjoy hot or cold.
This week we have chosen a Cheshire (Knutsford) grown Red Oak Leaf lettuce. The leaves have a mild, sweet, and nutty flavour with a similar texture to flat/butter lettuce. English celery is included in both boxes. For centuries, civilisations across the globe used celery not as food but as a medicinal herb, due to being high in fibre, antioxidants, potassium and vitamin K. A great addition to salads, soups and stocks. Perfect for dipping into our delicious houmous. See below the gallery for the full contents both boxes

Bread always seems to be the first thing that people cut out of their diets when trying to cut down, but sourdough not only delivers a tangy flavour that’s perfect for toast and sandwiches, it is good for you, too! The fermentation process for sourdough bread can lead to an increased number of prebiotic and probiotic-like properties, which help improve gut health. It freezes exceptionally well so you won’t be tempted to eat the whole loaf.
