What to cook with May #seasonalrecipes

May is here! The trees are loaded with bright green leaves and I’m thriving on the abundant sunshine. My attention is divided between redesigning this website (launching soon!) and loading our garden with perennials while the time is right. Grace loves to help water the plants with her cute green watering can.

Several holidays are coming up. For Cinco de Mayo, browse Mexican recipes here (start with the guacamole and margaritas). For the Kentucky Derby, try a maple-sweetened mint julep or strawberry-infused mint julep (start infusing the bourbon now). For Mother’s Day, check out my spring brunch roundup.

The farmers’ markets will become more colorful each week this month. Below, you’ll find some of my favorite spring recipes so we can make the most of our fresh produce.
