This recipe for a quick but delicious quinoa salad, from our friend Bintu Hardy’s blog Recipes from a Pantry, has become a regular favourite for our deliciously nutty and light British Quinoa.

A quick and delicious lunchtime soup, pairing the sweetness of parsnips with earthy Split Fava Beans.

Lizzy Hughes of the Our Lizzy vegetarian cookery school in Malvern, Worcestershire sent us this mouth-watering recipe for a spicy and colourful summer salad of our "Black Badger" Carlin Peas.

Surprisingly easy to cook from scratch, this traditional Egyptian dish, made with Split Fava Beans, is delicious as a snack or meze.

It's not strictly hummus - which literally means chickpeas - but this quick, easy and delicious ful nabed dip makes a great alternative. Made with Split Fava Beans with no need to soak, it can be cooked from scratch in 30 to 40 minutes. Best served warm!

Lindsey Dickson's recipe for savoury Quinoa pancakes with a sweet edge, first published on her blog The Eating Tree. Like all her recipes, it's easy to follow, beautifully illustrated and delicious!

Remaining firm when cooked, Hodmedod's British-grown Whole Yellow and Blue Peas have a texture and delicate sweet flavour that is ideal in South Asian cookery.

This rich and satisfying dish was inspired by Leon's Butterbean and Chorizo Tapa, replacing the Butterbeans with our large white (and buttery!) Gog Magog Beans.

For Ful Medames in a hurry try our very quick recipe using Hodmedod's Baked British Beans.

This rich whole fava bean soup is said to have been eaten in almost every Sicilian home since Roman times. It's delicious as a soup but can also be left to set and cut into slices and fried.
