Learn moreSimple Bruschetta
There are so many lovely combinations that you can enjoy with bruschetta, but this is the most simple - yet most flavoursome - combination. It is a classic. Fresh tomatoes, ripened by the sun, paired with good quality olive oil, garlic and fresh basil. Add a little salt to really bring out the flavours and you’ve got a beautifully fresh snack or light dinner. Makes 10 Time 20 mins INGREDIENTS: ½ french stick, cut into ten 2cm slices 250g tomatoes, whole or cherry tomatoes 1 garlic clove, crushed 5-8 large basil leaves, roughly torn Salt Extra Virgin Olive Oil IINSTRUCTIONS: Preheat the oven to 180°C and lay the sliced bread out on an oven tray, then brush both sides with olive oil and bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes until the bread is golden brown. While the bread is baking, chop the tomatoes finely into a bowl, add the garlic, basil and a little salt to taste. Once the bread is ready, set it out on a serving plate and allow to cool slightly. Spoon the tomato mix evenly across all of the bread and top with a drizzle of olive oil. RECIPE NOTES: This bruschetta is best eaten fresh. If you don’t think you will eat all of it in one serve, keep the bread in an air tight container to stay fresh and crispy and place the tomato mixture in an airtight container in the fridge. Tomatoes are best kept at room temperature as they can go a little gritty in the fridge, but the mix should be fine for a day if you’re making this in advance. Dietaries Dairy Free, Vegetarian, Vegan

While the pumpkin is cooking, make the vinaigrette. When the pumpkin has 20 minutes to go, bring 3 cups of water to boil. Once boiling, add the orzo and cook for 10-12 minutes. While orzo is boiling, heat a pan with oil on a medium heat. Cut the bacon into strips and cook until done. Chop the spinach. Add pumpkin, orzo, bacon and spinach to a bowl.

Learn moreBacon & Jalapeno Potato Salad
This Bacon & Jalapeno Potato Salad is this summer’s favourite. The jalapenos add just that extra zest and zing to the dressing giving the salad so much more flavour. The spice is very mild but if you’re worried it might be too much, remove the seeds of the jalapenos before you chop them up. Serves 6-8 Time 40 mins INGREDIENTS: 1.2kg potato, washed and cubed 4 rashers bacon ¼ cup jalapenos finely chopped Dressing ½ cup mayonnaise 2 Tbsp white vinegar or apple cider vinegar 1 teaspoon wholegrain mustard Salt and pepper to taste INSTRUCTIONS: Place the potato in a large pot of water and bring to the boil, then boil until the potato is just cooked through. Drain, rinse with cold water and leave to cool in a colander. Preheat the oven to 180°C and lay the bacon rashers on a lined baking sheet. Cook until bacon is crispy. Let the bacon cool on some paper towels then dice into small pieces. Add all dressing ingredients to a jar and shake well. Then add the jalapenos to the dressing, shake once more. Prepare your serving bowl, add the cooled potato and bacon, then pour the dressing over and toss with salad servers to coat the potato in the dressing. Keep chilled until serving, remove from fridge 15 minutes before serving to allow the potato to come to room temperature. The salad keeps for up to 3 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
