We share Little Bird’s belief that ‘food should not only taste amazing, it should make you feel amazing too’, and hence Allpress Olive Groves have partnered with Megan and the Little Bird team to develop a series of delicious reasons to ‘finish every dish with EVOO’.
Little Bird Organics are all about showcasing fresh, vibrant, raw, organic ingredients; and so a partnership with Allpress Olive Groves to create simple, easy, and delicious recipes was only natural.
With tasty ways to unlock the nutritional benefits of raw ingredients & EVOO, these recipes will have you reaching for a bottle of EVOO every time you’re in the kitchen.
They’re easy to make, taste yum and are packed with the nutritional benefits of raw organic ingredients and our Waiheke grown and hand-harvested EVOO.
- Watermelon pomegranate & cucumber salad - A beautiful dish full of juicy summer vegetables and fruits. With cucumber and watermelons boasting about 90% water content, this salad is incredibly hydrating.
- Herby courgette and olive salad with avocado pesto - This salad is perfect for any BBQ or gathering, bursting with vibrant greens and fresh flavours – making it a great addition to a potluck spread.
- Pressed portobello mushroom steaks with BBQ glaze & chipotle cashew crumble - This is a delicious way of cooking mushrooms; they end up having a firm and fleshy texture to them, the pressure of the Ironclad Legacy Pan releases most of the natural water content all while creating the perfect crispy golden crust.
- Heirloom tomato salad with basil, cultured cashew cheese & balsamic onions - This simple salad is a beautiful celebration of late summer flavours, with the quality of the tomatoes and EVOO being key to its success.
And, if you’re in Auckland, pop into Little Bird Kitchen, 1A Summer Street, Ponsonby (open 7 days, 8am – 4pm) to taste one of two limited-time dishes created by Megan, using our signature Allpress Waiheke Blend – available in store from the 24th March.
