Simple and in Season June Event Round Up (Part One)

I am incredibly late posting my round-up of June’s Simple and in Season so my apologies for that. I’ve loved seeing the recipes come in and June was certainly a wonderful month for seasonal produce. In between speaking at Food Blogger Connect, running my second My Polish Kitchen pop up and celebrating my father’s 90th birthday – there has been lots going on!

So, without further ado, here’s part one of June’s Simple and in Season community blog event – many thanks for all your entries.

Simple and in Season

1. Ros at The More than Occasional Baker started off proceedings with these lovely Raspberry and Pistachio Financiers.

2.  The lovely Kellie at Food to Glow made a positively glorious Quinoa Bowl with Citrus, Avocado and Edamame.

    Have I moved? I’ll have to check out my own site! Depending on your blog supporter you sometimes get “Big MaxY”? instead of Magnolia.

      Hi Denise, when I clicked on the link it seemed to take me to a URL re-direct so I assumed you had moved your blog address?
