If you do not like pasta, you could always spiralize courgettes for a nutritious pasta alternative. Top tip: If you grow Asparagus remember at the end of the growing season cut foliage back to 10cm above soil level and mulch with well-rotted compost in autumn. Weed regularly and pick off asparagus beetles in spring!
