Tasty Spring Food Trends

Spring is a great season for food. Even though we don't suffer too much from cold here in San Diego, it's still great when the weather warms up a bit more and everything starts growing. This is reflected in the best spring dishes, too.

Lamb is at its best in spring, and now's a great time for this meat. With a texture similar to beef, it can be used in beef's place in lots of recipes. Lamb is also perfect with mint, and a salad with thinly sliced lamb and a drizzle of mint dressing is a beautiful starter.



Speaking of salads, spring is a great time for transition salads. For these, think about the salads that don't rely on a big pile of iceberg lettuce, though! Marinated vegetables, flavorful cheeses, and grains like quinoa are perfect in spring salads.

Spring is also a time to think ahead towards summer. Don't be afraid to add a bit of spice into your spring menus, and a bit of heat can be a nice reminder that summer is only a few months away.
