  • Calendulas brightening the garden now 🌼🧡

    Often called pot marigolds, calendulas are one of the hardest working flowers in the garden. Their bright orange and yellow petals attract pollinators, bring colour to borders, and are completely edible too.

    The petals have a light peppery flavour and can be scattered through salads, baked into cakes, infused into oils or used to naturally colour rice, butter and broths.

    🌱 Fun facts
    • Calendula, Calendula officinalis, has been grown for centuries in kitchen and medicinal gardens
    • The petals were once known as “poor man’s saffron” for the colour they bring to food
    • Calendulas will often self-seed happily around the garden each year

    🧡 Nutrition notes
    • Rich in naturally occurring plant compounds called flavonoids
    • Traditionally used in balms, teas and infused oils
    • Loved by pollinators, especially bees and hoverflies 🐝

    A flower that earns its place in both the garden and the kitchen.18h

    ⏰ Make up the mixture the night before, in the morning pop in the oven, then go get the family ready for work or school. If you cook for a little longer, you can cut into oat bars which are perfect for little hands and great as a daytime snack (so not just for breakfast. Made using the best of ingredients from your local @dunnesstores ❤️

    Prep time 5 mins
    Cook time 25 mins

    Serves 1 adult and 2 children (double up the ingredients as needed)

    ✨Ingredients
    2 bananas
    1 cup oats
    1/2 cup finely crushed seeds (I used pumpkin and sunflower)
