| This salad is an excellent addition to any summery meal. The earthy flavours of smoked quinoa and chickpeas, go wonderfully with the fresh spicy pesto. Adapt the greens to what’s in season and locally available. Finished with creamy tahini and oat yoghurt and crunchy nuts and seeds. |
This lovely recipe comes from Hermione, of Grow, Gather and Feast, who lives in the Scottish Borders with her husband and three small children. She writes a weekly newsletter from her Scottish garden with seasonal, plant-based recipes to inspire what to cook and grow throughout the year.
Hermione and her family moved to the Scottish Borders three years ago because they fell in love with the garden. She can usually be found outside with her little ones in tow, sowing seeds, weeding and watering the garden.
