Mint & Basil recipes

[Cooper27]

I am hoping for some recipes that could use lots of mint/basil. I have a couple of plants growing like weeds, I've already frozen 2 cups worth, and still have loads!

I have been enjoying lots of pesto, but would love some soup ideas especially

Hi Cooper, pea and mint soup would be my first choice:

We have a healthy soup topic and we don’t have pea and mint if you do make some please post a photo.

Basil is OK with a salad as well and I’m sure that you’ll get more ideas. 😊

I think it’s great growing your own herbs and spices. 🌱

Hi Cooper27

Yes, Pea and Mint soup would also be my preference. I was reminded that I intended to try a recipe that I had ear-marked - and it is here if you want to have a look:

I must say I've not tried it yet, but it looks nice.

You could try courgette soup and add mint and basil. If you do make courgette soup don’t add to much stock as it becomes too bland in taste and watery 😁 Ali 🙂🌱
