Mums Homegrown Food




Mum has grown...

On the left, the big peppers are Capsicum Peppers - part of the chilli family but these peppers are more sweet than spicy. These can be eaten raw with dips like humus and has more vitamin C in it than an orange! Mums favourite recipe to use them in: making fresh tomato sauce.

In the middle - Parsley.

Top Right - Money Maker Tomatoes - firm family favourite, used in everything. Mum has had a large crop of these this year and we are literally giving them away! We have too many!

Right Middle - Basket of Fire Chilli Peppers - These 2 little chillies, just as the name suggests are very hot! These have been grown outside on the patio and have now been moved into the conservatory as the weather has changed.  Mum suggests: you do not need a lot of these! Although, these are not as hot as the Scotch Bonnets she grew last year so she is pleased to have chillies with a variance in heat. Mums favourite recipe to use them in: home made sweet chilli dip!

Bottom Right - Lemon Thyme
