This week a very simple recipe for a quick and tasty meal with one of Sutton Community Farm’s favorites. The Swede is back in our Vegboxes, for a little early taste of the holiday season! This versatile root vegetable can be used in soups, grated to make lovely pasties, roasted, and even used in wintery vegetable stews. Both recipe and picture are from BBC Good Food.
