Pumpkin, Feta & Spinach Salad

December 27, 2022

This Pumpkin, Feta and Spinach Salad is one of our favourite recipes. We make it often and whenever our daughter comes for dinner it is her NUMBER 1 request. She loves it.

We are a little weird; we like the pumpkin almost burnt to bring out the sweetness, but it really is each to their own, but you can see in the image what we like.

But it isn’t a Thermomix Recipe?

No, it isn’t a Thermomix recipe. We do make other things😊

We have had so many messages for this recipe – what’s in it, how to make it. So, here it is, on our website.
