Good reminder. I try to eat a diverse mix and I cook in the moment and with what I have and what my body says "eat this" when I see it. So I'm afraid no recipe as such to share except - support local, eat organic if possible, listen your body's calling and be present when preparing foods so that your energy goes into the food with love

Eat with the season. These are the fruits and veggies thriving in Cape Town this winter 🌱 What’s your favourite winter recipe using local produce?

🥦🍊 Eat local this winter!
Look out for these seasonal stars at your next market:
Spinach
Cabbage
Carrots
Turnips
Citrus fruits
Sweet potatoes
Beets
Support local farmers and eat with the season 🌱
