Seasonal recipes for July

This is our favourite bit – what to do with all this seasonal produce in your kitchen

a fenel salad

Fennel, pear and caramelised pecan salad with croutons

This salad is crunchy, sweet, salty, punchy, bright and so many other amazing things we're pretty sure everyone will love this salad.

tagine

Spiced aubergine tagine with sweet apricots

This is one of our favourite recipes at any time of the year, but when we can use fresh local produce it tastes that much better!

tzatziki dip

Vegan Tzatziki 

This cooling cucumber and yoghurt based dip is the ideal addition to any July BBQ or picnic.

grilled caesar salad

Grilled Romaine Caesar 

Think you know Caesar salads, think again. We love to drench it in our Caesar dressing and serve it with crunchy croutons. Take our word for it, you won't ever go back to regular Caesars.

All that’s left to do now is pick a recipe and get to your local market! 

Let us know what ingredient you’re most looking forward to this month in the comments.
