    When we were buying our juicer the demonstrater showed us a fruit juice with added broccoly, however that it spelt, and brussel sprouts.

    Excellent stuff if they don't see it going in!!

      Tomato skins are not easily digestable but are the healthiest part of the tomato.

      I am aiming to become the passata queen of Bedfordshire this year as I mistakenly grew over 50 plants (No it isn't a competition I will just crown myself).

      My basil bush and chillies are at the ready and I'm just waiting for the toms to get red. Hopefully by the end of it I'll have many frozen varieties of passata filling my freezer to see me through the long hard winter

        We're overcome with tomatoes too It's great innit, after last year?!
        Anyway, we've made a couple of batches of Dolwixio sauce - pasta sauce with everything but the mince, cooked into lovely thick, rich redness - and got about 12 meals worth so far. Also, a big panful of basic tomato sauce which we'll portion out and freeze ready to go into chillies, casseroles, pasta, soups etc.
        I need a bigger freezer

            With the lack of summer and salads, here's what i have been using my bag fulls of toms for, a thick and tasty pasta sauce, with a kick..
            slowly soften 1 large red (chopped) onion for 10 mins in plenty olive oil, add 1 red pepper chopped, once soft add 2 or 3 garlic cloves(slice thinely) and as many tomatoes as the pan takes, keep cooking on low heat till as soft and add 3 to 6 drops of tobasco, freshly ground sea salt and black pepper, good squeeze tomato puree and good large handful of basil, simmer 10 mins and run through a blender... easy and freezes so fantastic quick sauce all winter... i have done it tonight with half a fresh chilli (1st to ripen) and its was warmer than normal but delicous...but with runner bean gluten i am also out of space in freezer, not to mention the blackberries i found near the local canal...
