December means winter, cold, and Christmas! As the temperatures drop and the colder weather is  approaching, it is time to switch over to warm and cosy meals. And winter isn’t all that bad, fresh produce wise; thanks to modern farming methods, farmers are able to produce fresh food all throughout winter.

In December, the following vegetables are in season: beetroot, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, cabbage, kale, turnip, radish, celery, potato, spinach, pumpkin, etc.

You can create a variety of dishes with these; beetroot burgers, carrot soup, kale risotto, mashed parsnips, pumpkin curry, and so many more! The combinations of vegetables, ingredients, and meals you can cook with these are truly endless.

And of course let’s not forget about Christmas favourites: brussel sprouts, cranberries, and chestnuts.
