Hey Presto Pesto & Grilled Zucchini; Our autumn harvest

Our basil plants are coming to an end so it's harvest time!! We made sure we left some plants to go to seed so the flowers feed the bees and we get more basil plants popping up next year.

Seven classes made delicious basil pesto this week, with Mrs Daniel. That's a lot of basil! Here's out quick and easy recipe:

HEY PRESTO PESTO

A pinch of salt
Sunflower seeds or nuts
Garlic (optional)

GRILLED CHEESE ZUCCHINI

By enviro class number eight, the basil had run low, but not to worry Room 15 picked a marrow and made a another delicious snack.

We cubed the giant zucchini, added some salt and a decent hand full of cheese, before grilling on high for 15minutes. Yummo!
