Join a thriving community of home cooks who love to share their seasonal creations.
Simple and in Season is a monthly food blogging event by the lovely Ren over at Ren Behan where you are invited to link up any of your seasonal recipe posts – anywhere in the world! I am delighted to be guest hosting the challenge this month. Join a thriving community of home cooks who love to share their seasonal creations! Bookmark recipes for later use if the produce used isn’t in season where you are.
Each month, there will be a round up of all the entries and they are also promoted on the community Simple and in Season Pinterest board.
Use the hashtag #SimpleandinSeason on Twitter and I’ll re-tweet any that I see!
GUIDELINES
- All you have to do is come up with a dish using any seasonal produce you like (savoury or sweet) post it on your blog, add a link to this post mentioning Simple and in Season and linking to www.renbehan.com and then manually add the link to your post in the box on each month’s launch page (click the badge on my Blog sidebar to find the current host)
- A round up post featuring all the recipes entered will be posted at the beginning of each new month.
- You can take inspiration from anywhere – adapt a recipe from your favourite cookbook, try something from a magazine, make up your own creation or share a family favourite. The usual rules apply when using someone else’s recipe, please either get permission from the author to post it or adapt it in some way stating how/why you’ve changed it.
- Include any seasonal produce you fancy including fruit, veg, herbs, meat or fish.
- Link as many recipes as you like. You can link posts entered into other blog events or carnivals as long as it involves a seasonal food item (and fits in with their rules).
- The linky-up is open to anyone, anywhere, and although it will be nice to feature as much British produce as possible, it will be interesting to see what’s in season elsewhere.
- By entering your link, you are giving me permission to add your photograph to the round-up. I will link back directly to your post when I include you.
- If you have questions or problems, email me or leave me a comment in the comment box at the bottom of the post.
- If you are on Twitter, tweet your link adding the hashtag #simpleandinseason or add me @TangoRaindrop and I will re-tweet it.

Thanks Elizabeth for hosting this month. I think you are going to be extra busy as it is national vegetarian week and some of us are posting every day! I hope that’s okay

Oh dear, Mr Linky said “oops” and now I can see why, he’s posted my entry twice – can you delete one please? I can’t see a delete button

Looking forward to more seasonal inspiration. Love seeing what people are cooking throughout the year and what’s in season where they are too 🙂
Elizabeth says
These blogging challenges are such a great way to gain recipe inspiration – people can be so creative! 🙂

Love this idea! I’m obsessed with roasted butternut squash at the moment, although my recipe os pretty simple. Pierce with a knife, and microwave for 6 mins, then cut in half, rub with a little olive oil and roast for 40 mins on 200c. Cut in to cubes, and roll in seed mix then eat dipped in sour cream:) YUMMY!!!!
Elizabeth says
Oh that sounds delicious! I’m a fan of roasted butternut squash too 🙂

Looking forward to seeing some great seasonal recipes! Hoping for something with asparagus – so beautiful this time of year!
Elizabeth says
Mmm spring asparagus – yum! 🙂
