Spring Trend: More Is More

This season bold colors, and prints that pop are trending.  No one is more colorful than the iconic Iris Apfel, and she actually has coined the phrase, "more is more." Vogue states: "When in doubt, add another bright color or maximalist print to a look—it will be a conversation starter at the season’s parties." I call this fun fashion. Scroll down to see what I found for us.

In "Pop Multi" this top is what the season is all about. It's done in 100% cotton, making it a spring and summer staple.

Foodie Friday: Serve Up A Spring Salad

 

It's finally Spring, even though I have the heat on at the moment. The sign went up for the Farmer's Market down the street yesterday. Fresh spring greens are just around the corner. From watermelon radishes to edible flowers and perfect pea pods, these recipes highlight the season's brightest produce.

Spring Cobb Salad

Let's begin with one of the prettiest salads you ever saw. Those watermelon radishes get me every time. I am hoping that my local farmers market has them. This salad is dressed to the nines with a fresh, light, honey-Dijon vinaigrette.

The Modern Proper

Spring Greens and Flowers Salad

Oh how beautiful. It's not often you are served a salad with an edible flower in it. The mix of greens is quite unique, and those flowers are available at WS, too.

Recipe:  Williams Sonoma  

Flowers: Williams Sonoma

Very Berry Dream Salad with Chili Mango and Peanut Vinaigrette

This may become your very favorite dressing. It's a healthy dish with those berries, and practically vegan minus the cheese. 

Half Baked Harvest

Chicken Avocado Salad With Radish, Celery, Pistachio and Green Onion

A super healthy salad that is filled with good fat like avocado and olive oil. The dressing is simple

 and citrusy. 

Heather Christo

Sesame Roasted Asparagus, Egg and Bacon Salad 

If anything screams Easter it is this recipe! Actually, it is a perfect brunch dish for any special occasion. 

Half Baked Harvest

Strawberry Crunch Salad

I just love a salad with that features sweet and salty. The crunch comes from slivered almonds and salted pistachios. It's all dressed in a Champagne Vinaigrette. Not difficult but still impressive!

How Sweet Eats

Scallops with Cucumber Salad & Mascarpone

The crisp cucumber salad is the perfect pairing to the buttery mascarpone and scallops. A company worthy dish for sure.

The Original Dish 

Grilled Salmon Salad With Spring Greens

Gorgeous, right? More importantly, it is healthy. And if you haven't tried salmon with salad, you are missing out. The honey mustard vinaigrette not only dresses the salad, but flavors the fish, too.

The View From Great Island

French Potato Salad

"A simple French Potato Salad with fresh herbs – tarragon, parsley and chives, with a flavorful Dijon Vinaigrette. Healthy, vegan and light with no mayo!"  I wonder why our mamas never thought of using colorful potatoes? 

Feasting At Home

Roasted Radicchio Wedge Salad

Of all of the lettuces, radicchio is my favorite. And it certainly is the most colorful. It's a modern spin on a classic. 

Foxes Love Lemons

Southwest Chicken Salad

My kind of salad. It will be yours, too, if you like bold flavors. It's a main course type of dish, that's dressed with a creamy avocado dressing.

Down Shiftology

Tequilaberry Salad 

This recipe had me at "tequila." Sorry to say, however, there isn't a touch of booze in the salad. The back story is that the salad originates from a Minnesota restaurant. The history is fun. And the recipe is filled with texture and flavors.
