As a Vegetarian, Christmas day can be a little tricky with the weirdly obsessive amounts of meat that most Christmas tables find themselves amongst. And while there is never a shortage of Potatoes & Carrots, I like to mix a few greens, a good chunk of nuts and some fresh colour variety in there too. This means, my Salad game around Christmas time starts to get a little obsessive to say the least...
And lucky for you, I'm not shy on sharing them this Festive Season! This Salad is a favourite from my beautiful Aunty Ros. Extremely tasty, unique in texture and will win over any meat eater at the table.
This is also an easy salad to whip together for a Summer BBQ or Beach picnic. Delicious and unique flavours that you won't get from many other Salads - I promise you that!

We love stacking rings, but what we love even more is a perfectly fitting ring. Whether you’re treating yourself or planning a surprise for someone, choosing the right size is essential.
Good news: measuring your ring size is way easier than you think. No more guessing or ordering a ring that’s too tight or too loose! Follow our guide, and in just 3 minutes, you’ll know your size for life.
At Luna & Rose, we believe that every piece of jewelry tells a unique story. Whether its the person who gave it to you, the process of purchasing it, who you purchased it from, the travels you were on or the journey you decided to share with your chosen piece of jewellery.
With the idea of connection through jewellery, we created our Soleo collection — a range of 2 Heirloom-style Rings that are completely customisable.
Rosie, founder of Luna & Rose, shares the story and inspiration behind these unique creations.
At Luna & Rose, we love good stories - especially one that gets recycled! That’s why we created the Golden Giveback program: a sustainable initiative that transforms your old jewelry into new, ethical, and refined creations while supporting local craftsmanship. The result? Less waste, more style, and a planet that thanks us!
