Summer Recipes

The tinkle of a refreshing drink on ice, lunch and dinner outdoors, that much needed sunshine. Hands up if you love summer! It’s a fantastic season to eat more fresh vegetables and fruit while experimenting with new recipes and flavour combinations. Try this herby freekeh salad with grilled aubergine and courgette for a delicious dish that’s also quick to put together. Or make these feta and watermelon skewers for a tasty snack that’s perfect for hungry kids after school. We also love these halloumi and barbequed flatbreads featuring rose harissa for a meal that’s full of flavour. For dessert, a pavlova with whipped cream and fresh berries is a classic (best enjoyed on a sunny lawn) or churros with cinnamon sugar make a fun choice for dipping in melted chocolate. Head on over to our summer recipe collection for everything you need.
