Bringing together plenty of green goodness, Mary has tossed sweet Tenderstem broccoli, sugar snap peas and easy peasy frozen petit pois and smothered them in delicious butter to create a dish that can really be enjoyed as a main, side or stirred through pasta for a hearty meal. The author of more than 75 cookery books knows her stuff and by adding pumpkin and sunflower seeds plus a wholesome serving of almonds this dish is transformed into a bowl of beauty. Jam-packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, zinc, selenium, magnesium, vitamin E and plenty of fibre, this recipe packs a punch on health and flavour. Glorious greens with almonds and seeds Serves 4-6
Healthy greens have never looked so delicious and with this idea from Mary Berry, you might not keep them as just a side dish
