Tabbouleh by Kiwi Louise

This is a Gordon Ramsey recipe, slightly adapted. It has such a fresh summery taste and people are always asking me for the recipe. It's a great alternative to a rice salad.

Thai pickled beans or asparagus by Mama_B

I pickled green beans this way last year and we're still enjoying them now. Thai basil is relatively easy to find now, and is wonderful to grow. These pickles make great stir-sticks in savoury cocktails like Bloody Marys or Bloody Casears. Pickle crisp, while not necessary, is helpful in keeping the veggies from getting soft.
