Garfield Jun 2021 6:32pm, 11 Jun 2021 15,725 posts	Quote Pin Garfield Berries, pineapple, mango are my favourites...also kiwis, when peeled, though actually I think my blender would make short work of the skin!
Wine Legs Jun 2021 10:46am, 21 Jun 2021 5,773 posts	Quote Pin Wine Legs Kiwis are a protected bird and you definitely shouldn't be eating them. Kiwifruit on the other hand, are fine!

sallykate Jun 2021 10:19am, 22 Jun 2021 7,963 posts	Quote Pin sallykate Looking for vegan ideas for a barbecue: at the moment here's what in my mind - my usual lentil, tomato and roast aubergine salad - Moroccan carrot salad - grilled courgettes with mint and garlic - tabouleh There's only one vegan guest (not an ethical vegan AFAIK - she eats fish too but no dairy or eggs, avoiding saturated fat), so it won't be an entirely vegan barbecue but I'd like to make a range of things she can have and I'm feeling a bit stuck in the rut with the things above. I do love them but am aware I make them a LOT. Also any suggestions for the best vegan sausages? My usual preference is Cauldron, which she might be OK with as the only non-vegan ingredient is dried egg white.
Chrisull Jun 2021 10:42am, 22 Jun 2021 17,877 posts	Quote Pin Chrisull That sounds like a great set of dishes. But for something else... Denis Cotter's first two books have some good ideas (Paradiso seasons in particular has an outdoor section), butternut squash coated in a chilli/coriander/cumin is one we use. He's riffed on this a few times, the most basic version is here (a later version adds freshly ground coriander and cumin in addition), which is what we use. Exchange butter for vegan alternative obviously. app.ckbk.com
