We all know just how much I appreciate to follow the seasonal produce offerings for the benefits like…
- Variety of eating, which also means variety of nutrients;
- Means, I never get bored eating the same thing;
- It’s super cost effective;
- Gets me thinking creatively in the kitchen, and
- Of course when food is in season there is an abundance at great quality.
And of course, those who do know me well, also know that I enjoy a ‘sweet treat’ as I call it. Being a bit sensitive to sweeteners I try to ensure with my sweet treats that they are not just a big hit of sugar (no matter the sweetener you choose to use), I also look to try and add nourishment to the treat.
You know, achieve a bit of balance. Check out my recipe below, for these delicious chocolate beetroot muffins
Chocolate & Beetroot Muffins
I actually picked myself up some beetroot at the market recently and also created a delicious warm salad, together with some fresh wild rocket, roast sweet potato, toasted flaked almonds and sprinkled with goats cheese. It was soooo good – we ate it with a piece of grilled salmon.
Beetroot is one of those cold, warm, sweet and savoury foods – don’t you just love versatile products.
