Hello! I’m Anne, from Craving Something Healthy. I’m incredibly honored to create this, 25 Ways To Enjoy Spring Vegetables, round-up for the lovely Amee, while she’s (hopefully) getting some much needed rest. I met Amee last fall, when we were suite-mates at Blog Brûlée, a weekend conference for healthy food bloggers. Immediately, I loved her because she gave me the big bedroom with the en suite bathroom, even though she arrived first. Yep, Amee is every bit as kind, wonderful and adorable as she seems, and has the cutest southern drawl. She's the best, and we wish her the very best in her recovery.
It’s finally spring, which is synonymous with lighter and healthier eating. Hooray for spring!
I’m feeling a strong urge to ditch the casseroles and potatoes, and hit the farmers market to stock up on fresh herbs and colorful veggies. I love to create fresh, plant-based meals, but, instead of one of my recipes, today, I’m sharing a roundup of recipes using spring vegetables which were all contributed by Blog Brûlée alumnae. You will find so many wonderful recipes here, from a talented group of friends. Get your pinning finger ready, there is something here for everyone!
