All I do is cook these days

There's a student initiative in my uni where every two weeks we buy fresh season fruit and vegetables from an organic farmer and then everyone gets a big bag of them for about 10 euros. Last week I gave it a try, and I got all of this (plus some new potatoes):

That's apples, a bunch of kale, carrots (we're talking a lot here!), a parsnip, beetroots and a small pumpkin. 

So what did I make out of them? For starters, the apples were delicious so I've just been eating them as snacks. But they're also very good cut into little pieces in a kale salad.

I don't even like salads that much but this one is good! Here's how you make it: 

1 apple, cut into small match sticks

1 carrot, grated

1 bunch of kale, washed, dried and chopped.

a handful of any sort of nuts and/or dried raisins/cranberries etc. 

Combine all of the above in a big bowl.

Make the dressing by mixing 

1 tsp rosemary (or any other herb you like)

1/2 tsp mustard

a couple squirts of lemon 

2-3 tbsp olive oil

a bit of vinegar

salt & pepper

And pour it over the salad. Mix well. The longer you let the hard kale infuse with the dressing and the juices from the apple & carrot, the better your salad will be, so this is perfect to make in advance/save for later.

More on what I did with the vegetables coming soon! :)
