Happy Easter! I hope you all have a wonderful day celebrating with your friends and family. This year we were in the mood for authentic looking dyed eggs, so we went with a gorgeous robin’s egg-esque design. They turned out so cute! (Eggs are a great source of protein, and the yolks contain choline, which is an nutrient essential for proper nervous system activity. Just in case you wanted to know. 🙂 )
If you need any last minute inspiration for Easter recipes, check out last year’s Easter post. Some of my favorite bright, springy ingredients to use include mint, lemon, asparagus, and peas. Lavender, rhubarb, and radishes look beautiful, too. Cooking with the produce that is in season is not only sustainable, but the ingredients are fresher and make for a satisfying meal.
Stay tuned- I’ve got some awesome Spring inspiration in the works. Plus, I’ve been to some amazing restaurants lately that I cannot wait to share with you. Trust me, the food is drool worthy. And *mostly* healthy. Tell me what Spring produce you are loving lately, and what recipes you whipped up for Easter. I would love to know!
PS: how much do you love eggs? I don’t know about you, but put an egg on almost anything, and it is instantly like 10,000 times yummier. Agree?
