Welcome Spring! Menu
This is just the perfect menu to say good-bye to winter and welcome in spring. It is still a little brisk out at night so this braised chicken dish will warm you up and help take off the last of the winter’s chill. The salad and dessert are light and colorful as the flowers that are starting to pop in my garden. Here’s to looking ahead to brighter, warmer, longer sunshine-filled days.
What are we cooking?
Roasted beets really need a cape because they truly are a super food! They look so unassuming, kinda like a piece of coal before it is transformed into a sparkling diamond. But once you roast them, you will uncover what a true gem they are. Since we eat with our eyes first, I’ll begin by saying that the beets’ color is absolutely stunning. Then, there is their delicious sweet, earthy taste; to top it off, they are so good for your health, packed with vitamins and rich in nitrates that aids in better circulation and lowering blood pressure. I try to add a beet a day to my diet!
