Hey foodie! 👋🌿
Hope you managed to squeeze in something fun over the school holidays and are now looking forward to a little peace and quiet again… 😉😂
With everyone settling back into routines, we’ve got a very good week of food ahead. Asparagus season is officially BACK, some absolute favourites are on special, and we’ve added an easy weeknight dinner option to the shelves.
🌿 FROM THE FARMS 🌿
🌱 Organic Asparagus - Cafresco Organics
Asparagus season is back, baby!
These beautiful green spears are certified organic and grown by Cafresco Organics - and we’re very happy to see them again.
Asparagus is a natural source of fibre, folate and potassium, along with a range of vitamins and antioxidants. Roast it until slightly crispy, throw it on the BBQ, sauté it with garlic and butter, toss it through pasta or keep things simple with olive oil, lemon and a good sprinkle of salt.
When produce comes into season this good, you don’t need to do much to it.
