Spring brings the promise of radiant colors, better weather, and the long-awaited chance to brighten up our meal plans! Here are some delicious and refreshing meal ideas to celebrate the coming of the season:
Strawberry Spinach Salad:
Try this take on a fruity vegetable salad featuring baby spinach, strawberries, avocado slices, and crumbled feta cheese. Toss the ingredients and drizzle a touch of balsamic vinaigrette to add the perfect balance of tanginess.
Pesto Pasta Primavera:
This recipe is best made with seasonal produce. Bring together a medley of bright vegetables like cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, zucchini, and broccoli with al dente pasta and homemade basil pesto. Top with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese for an irresistible spring pasta dish.
Spring Vegetable Frittata:
There’s nothing quite as delicious as a light frittata loaded with spring veggies like peas, spinach, and tender asparagus tips. Top with some crumbled goat cheese (or a cheese of your preference) and, then bake until golden.
Lemon Raspberry Tart:
Spring sweet treats make everything better! Try your hand at a lemon raspberry tart with a buttery shortbread crust, lemon curd filling, and a raspberry glaze. Sprinkle fresh raspberries and powdered sugar to add sweetness and also colour to your dessert.
Mango Coconut Rice Bowls:
Delight your taste buds with vibrant mango coconut rice bowls topped with grilled chicken or tofu, sliced avocado, black beans, and fresh cilantro. Finish with a squeeze of lime juice and a sprinkle of toasted coconut for a taste of paradise.
Ready to dust off your apron, head to the farmer's market, and get creative for Spring? Happy cooking!
