Thank you dear friends for taking part
in the last Eat Your Greens challenge of 2017! Shaheen and I
will be taking a little break from the challenge in December, but of
course we will be posting other recipes. I would like to thank you
all on behalf of both of us for taking part in Eat Your Greens,
reading our blogs and commenting. It has been a great year, and
hopefully you will follow us into the new year.
Now let's have a look what was shared
with the challenge in November. I love it how vibrant you made this
mostly gloomy month of November look. There is everything from
seasonal comfort food to fresh smoothies covering all the possible
shades of green, just a perfect mix.
Corina from Searching for
Spice shared this fresh Fruity Green Ginger Smoothie. It
contains spinach, ginger, apple, banana and kiwi fruit, and has a
lovely bright shade of green. I already start feeling healthier by
merely reading about this smoothie! I'm sure that it really keeps
some winter colds away.
Sudha from Simply Spicy,
Quirky and Serendipitious posted a Green Onion Pancake with Chickpea Flour. It also looks very beautiful and inviting to eat.
It's Sudha's version of a Korean style pancake. She makes it with
green onions, chickpea flour, garlic and spices. Sounds incredibly
warming for this season.
Laura from Touch Wood
revealed one of her favourite quick recipes for busy days: Soft Polenta and Spinach. Here are also various shades of green running through
the dish. Laura's secret is to leave the residue of the spinach in
the pot and then cooking the polenta in it so that it will also get
some green bits. The pale green avocado crowns this meal.
Sadhna from Herbs Spices and
Tradition shared with us Cheesy Jalapeño Poppers. I just
adore a good Jalapeño popper, and these look very nice. These
poppers contain mozzarella, cream cheese and cilantro among a few
other things. I wouldn't mind these as a snack any day.
Shaheen my Eat Your Greens
co-host from Allotment 2 Kitchen posted a fragrant Preserved Lemon Coriander Salsa. I can just imagine how herby, punchy and
zesty this salsa is. It's full of parsley, coriander and preserved
lemons, and isn't that lime bowl just gorgeous!
My recipe for November was Laverbread Scones adapted from an original recipe by Shaheen, and also made
with the laverbread that she sent me. Laverbread is Welsh seaweed
paste and it gave these spelt scones a nice hint of green.
So this was Eat Your Greens in
November, see you again next year!
