In praise of melons...

Today for lunch I had avocado and cashew pâté (with mango & chilli) elegantly presented in its plastic pot 😉 with a wholemeal plait, some luscious cherries (I adore them!) and half a galia melon.

Ah, melons; don’t you just love ‘em:

Positives:

High fibre

High water content

Low calories

High nutrient content

Absolutely delicious

Negatives:

Nope! Can’t think of any!!

Enjoy the rest of your day 🙂

I’m afraid washing and chopping are the limit of my culinary skills!

I bought the pâté in a local farm shop. It’s made by a Scottish Company:

I’m particularly grateful for your question because it prompted me to look at their website. They produce some really scrummy looking dips and pâté. I am now keen to try more of their products so thank you for asking 🙂

Hi Rousler, a great looking lunch I really like the look and sound of your cashew pate and a great choice of accompaniments, all very healthy. 😊

Hi Rousler

Your lunch looks really great, and I agree with you that Melons are wonderful - plus cherries too - oh, and delicious Wholemeal Plait - that looks so scrumptious. I really like the sound of the Avocado & Cashew pate (with mango & chilli) - that sounds particularly tasty.

Zest :-)
