This weekend was such a nice outlook to spring. Saturday was still a bit windy but already so sunny and same on Sunday. Loved it!
Saturday is always my favourite farmers market at Carriageworks in Eveleigh. You get everything there and it's such a nice atmosphere. It's off the main road and there aren't any cars so it makes ideal to even bring the kids as you don't have to worry about the traffic.
I love all sort of vegetables but this weekend I felt especially inspired by the humble beetroot. It's a bit of a pain sometimes to prepare it as it stains everything and stubbornly but I love the earthy flavour. I prefer to roast them whole wrapped in foil in the oven and then just scrape off the skin (so easy) and since it already felt like spring I just teamed them up with my favourite soy and linseed bread from Sonoma Bakery, mixed leaf salad and labne cheese. So good!

| Carriageworks is such a great spot for the farmers market. |

| Enough room for the kids to wander around too. |

Blushing beetroot. A much under-estimated vegetable. I love them roasted and in salads. The smaller, the better. Lovely post. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely comment. Blushing beetroot - that's very nice!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are so beautiful! I want to make some of that beetroot relish we were eating. . .
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cassie. The beetroot relish was d'lish, would probably add a bit more balsamic to it though. I am sure you can do it better!
