A Very Veggie Christmas 2016
Vine: Best of 2016 Compilation
Riverford Veggie Boxes
This week I’m giving a bit of a different review than normal – it’s all about the Riverford vegetable box service, which brings farm-fresh food straight to your door. They also deliver fruit, eggs, and meat if you want it, though we stick with the veggies. We’ve been trying this delivery box for around a month, which we figured is enough time to give it a review!
Vine Post: Butternut Squash Lasagne
This is something I’ve always wanted to try, and it carries on our beloved trend of “putting stuff inside other stuff”. Rather than a traditional lasagne, this one is layered inside and around a butternut squash. There’s no pasta involved, which is great for those of you avoiding it, and it’s a lot healthier than the normal version.

Vine Post: Cabbage Coleslaw
First up, apologies for the delay on getting this coleslaw recipe out to you all – we had a lot of trouble with the update to WordPress 4.7! Thankfully I managed to basically learn coding in the space of a few hours to get it fixed. Anyone out there who still hasn’t updated – beware – there are lots of bugs in it!
Asda Beetroot and Root Veg Burger
As soon as I saw this burger, I knew I had met my dream. I LOVE beetroot, and the best part is that J can’t stand to eat it. This means I had these beetroot burgers all to myself! They come with a sachet of beetroot salsa as well, which I was excited to try. They’re frozen, which means you have to defrost the sachet in a cup of boiling water.
Vine Post: Spaghetti Ragu
This week, we decided to do something with that free sauce we picked up at the Foodies Festival. We wanted to create something based around a ragu sauce, and went for this tasty spaghetti ragu number.
It’s very simple – no recipe to speak of, you just cook the veggies and mince together and then add the sauce. The spaghetti cooks separately, and when they are ready, you combine the two together. Give them a good mix and serve with garlic bread and a generous scattering of grated cheese on top. Done!
