This week Sunday Supper is serving Citrus Recipes That Will Make You Smile!
March 20th is the official start of Spring this year, and what better way to celebrate than by recognizing the bright and versatile flavors of citrus in recipes that are sure to make everyone smile?
Help us usher in Spring with your best and brightest citrus recipes! Try anything from your everyday navel orange to satsuma mandarins, clementines, tangelos or grapefruit — or stick with the classics like lemon & lime! Shout out to our member Ellen Folkman for this tasty theme idea!
I’m a big fan of spring. My favorite flowers come out of hiding. Purple dots of violets appear in the newly greened grass. Lily-of-the-Valley, lilacs, pansies, daffodils and tulips take turns putting on show of pastel colors and delicate scents.
Daylight isn’t as fast to disappear as snow and ice.
Fresh local veggies start to reappear at farmers markets and neighborhood stores. Time to start planning my own garden too!
I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “spring chicken” so a young tender chicken dish it will be! A dish with my favorite citrus of course, Meyer Lemon!
