Staying in?
EAT: A range of products and preserves made from wild and native Irish foods, Wild About do a mean Nettle Pesto. Not only is it delicious, but nettles also reduce blood pressure and cholesterol! Fire a dollop into your pasta or spread some on fish before baking in the oven for a gourmet meal at home. Stock up at SuperValu.
