Green smoothie My favourite recipe for a thick and creamy green smoothie – don’t worry, you can’t taste the spinach!

Spinach, split pea and coriander soup March is a funny one. The warmer weather means that I don’t feel the need for rib-sticking stews and mashed potato quite so heavily, but it’s hardly salad weather either.

The cabbage is definitely the star, you’re not trying […]
