Ruth’s Jolly Christmas

Student Placement 2021-22
My name is Ruth, and I am a big lover of Christmas. Over the next few weeks I will be sharing delicious recipes and tips and tricks, to help you all be well prepared for the festive season. From warming chorizo dishes, to a table topping turkey.
This year has been a year of trying to get back to normality! So, here at Helen Browning’s organic we want to help you make your Christmas extra special. What better way to do so than with delicious food that can be shared with your loved ones? That’s why we have focused many of our chosen recipes on dishes that are perfect for the family, groups of friends, and for a little party of your own to celebrate what we missed out on last Christmas.
If you do feel inspired and try any of the recipes, then please let us know through tagging us in your photos, as we love to see your creations and we really appreciate your support.
