Meat Free Monday - 24.02.2014

We have just begun to dig out our crop of potatoes and they are looking so good. Our variety of choice this season was Agria (though it always is if I'm honest) as it's such a good potato for so many meals; homemade chips, mash, gnocchi, roasting . . . I could go on and on but I won't. It's a pretty sweet haul so far too. I've taken at least four kilos worth so far and there is still plenty of digging to be done!



So this weeks Meatfree Meal is making use of these earthy gems alongside some other delish in season crops. Enjoy xx


Potato, Pumpkin, Haloumi and Green Bean Salad
3 large Pototoes
1/4 Pumpkin
Handful of green beans
90g Haloumi
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
  2. Peel and cut the potatoes into small 1cm pieces.
  3. Add potato pieces into a bowl and drizzle with oil. Add any seasoning or herbs you like.
  4. Put the potato in the oven, set the timer for 25mins.
  5. Cut the pumpkin into 2cm pieces and remove the skin.

Schrebergärten - Tempelhof, Berlin

Apparently there are about 1.4 million community gardens in Germany, 833 in Berlin alone!(thanks wikipedia).
Here are some of my favourite snaps from one we visited at the Tempelhof Airport land. I don't know for sure, but I think it may even be a guerrilla community garden. Berlin you're so cool.
