As the weather warms up (some day) our eating habits tend to change. It's time to think about dishes that are light but satisfying. These 12 recipes feature tender noodles, the best of spring's veggies, and light zesty sauces. Enjoy and Mangia!
Linguine with Lemon & Tomatoes
An elevated pasta recipe that's also simple. The lemon brings on the bright spring flavor
Pesto Zoodles
The perfect recipe for the person who shys away from pasta, like myself. It's made with spiral zucchini "zoodles." Topped with homemade pesto which takes everything up a notch. Going to try this recipe soon.
Paccheri and Cheese with Peas and Mint
I always love a dish that can be presented so attractively. In this case, you bake the recipe in a springform pan. Brilliant!
Springtime Pasta With Blistered
Tomatoes and Eggs
Anything with an egg on top gets my attention. Under the egg you will find garlic sauteed mushrooms, crisp asparagus, and noodles swirled in olive oil.
Spring Pasta Salad
The stars of this salad are the sweet mangos, mandarins, and strawberries. Special enough for Mother's Day
I would say.
Lemon Angel Hair Pasta
Cristina Ferrare's recipe looks just perfect to me.
The ingredient that really sells it is the truffle salt!
Buttery Spring Pea and Burrata Pasta with Prosciutto
This recipe had me at "burrata," my favorite cheese. Created with fresh green peas, watercress, and basil. These greens provide all the color and the flavor! Tieghan says it is easy, too.
Spring Risotto With Peas and Corn
Creamy and comforting, and ready in 30 minutes!
This recipe can be served at room temp or chilled. The dressing is zesty and
Said to be lightening fast to make, this is springtime in a bowl! The bright colors have got to be healthy.
Carbonara Egg Nests
Beautiful breakfast or brunch dish, and easy to make, too. It's light and bakes in a muffin pan.
Dellalo
Fresh Homemade Pasta with Asparagus and Prosciutto
This dish looks next level to me. Truth is, who has time for from scratch pasta? If you do not, of course, store bought is fine. Or be like me and get fresh pasta at Eatily. The ingredients are perfect
for Spring.
