When the winter chill sets in, there’s nothing better than meals that are warm, comforting and nourishing. Winter vegetables are packed with seasonal flavour and nutrients, making them perfect for cosy dinners, hearty roasts and feel-good meals that help support wellbeing during the cooler months.

This season, we’re spotlighting some of our favourite winter vegetables — ideal for roasting, slow cooking, stir-fries and vibrant seasonal salads.

CAULI-BLOSSOM®

Cauli-Blossom® is naturally sweet and delicate, with tender stems and flavour-absorbing florets that are entirely edible from stem to tip — delivering amazing taste with zero waste. Grown in Australia by expert local growers, it’s rich in fibre and a source of Vitamin C, making it ideal for nourishing winter meals.

Its mild, nutty flavour shines roasted, grilled or added to hearty seasonal dishes. Try our Oven Roasted Cauli-Blossom® with Tahini Lemon Dressing or Air Fryer Mexican Cauli-Blossom® with Beef Tacos for cosy, flavour-packed winter meals.

Broccolini® combines the best of broccoli and Chinese kale, with a mild, slightly peppery flavour and tender edible stems. A source of fibre and Vitamins A and C, it’s a versatile winter vegetable that works beautifully roasted, stir-fried, steamed or barbequed. Add it to warming tray bakes, noodle dishes or easy sides this season. Try Tray Bake Roasted Vegetables with Broccolini® or Sweet Chilli Salmon and Broccolini Stir Fry for quick and comforting winter dinners.
