Star shaped beetroot

 What?????  I'm sure you aren't suggesting that I have used my little pastry cutters are you?  As if I would do that.  ๐Ÿ˜‰ I picked pea shoots, chard, lettuce, beetroot leaves, a bit of coriander and a solitary radish leaf from the veg plot. They've been shredded and put into the bottom of the tub. I chopped up a few pieces of the lacto fermented watermelon rind that I bottled this summer, then I added shop bought beetroot, cucumber, tomatoes and celery.  A good chunk of honey roasted gammon was chopped up and scattered over and then I drizzled mayonnaise  all over it. Then, being the good and dutiful wife that I am  ๐Ÿ˜€ I made himself some overnight oats with yoghurt, tinned raspberries and half a banana mashed and stirred in. I stirred Chia seeds through it all and have popped it in the fridge. Tony isn't keen on the texture of fresh banana but doesn't mind them mashed up. That's his work breakfast and lunch sorted for tomorrow. My lunch was the leftover bits of beetroot added to some veg plot veggies, fermented watermelon rind and gammon and made into a sandwich. Very tasty it was too

    1. I think the cucumber slices will be little Christmas trees tomorrow. I have all the time in the world to faff about at the moment.

  5. Looks good, Cherie! Tony sounds like my husband, who also has texture issues and doesn't like bananas except mashed up and IN things.
