Nettle spanakopita recipe

Nettle Spanakopita

One of my favourite all time uses for foraged nettles is this recipe for nettle spanakopita. This Greek filo pie is traditionally made with spinach, but we’ve used nettles which work amazingly well here. To make this spanakopita you’ll need quite a lot of nettles, so involve your friends in the picking if you can, …

Sweet Potato Brownies

I make these sweet potato brownies to take on big hikes or wild camps but to be honest they are equally good whilst relaxing on the sofa with a cup of coffee! They feel like a treat but are full of the good stuff including oats, almonds, and sweet potatoes. Plus no refined sugar to …
