Steps:
- Make the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs, adding the asparagus pieces 2 minutes before the pasta is done. Drain the pasta and asparagus; rinse under cold running water to stop the cooking. Toss the pasta and asparagus with the peas, roasted peppers, tomatoes, shallot and dill.
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, mustard, honey, garlic and lemon zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the pasta salad, tossing to coat. Let the salad hang out for a bit to soak up all of the flavor.
- When ready to serve, bowl it up. Then shave some ricotta salata over the top, drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with pepper.
SPRING PASTA
Steps:
- Prick eggplant several times with the tip of a knife. Place it in a parchment-lined bamboo steamer set over boiling water, and steam until tender, about 10 minutes.
- Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add peas, and season with salt. Cook, covered, for 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add salt and pasta, and cook until pasta is al dente, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain pasta. Meanwhile, in the same skillet you used for the peas, heat remaining tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add spring onions, parsley, sage, chives, garlic, cooked peas, salt, and 1 tablespoon water. Cook, covered, until onions are bright green, 3 to 5 minutes. Add arugula, and cook until wilted. Top cooked pasta with pea mixture. Garnish with 1 tablespoon chervil and 1 tablespoon grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
- Remove eggplant from steamer, and cut lengthwise almost in half. Top each eggplant with 1/4 cup ricotta cheese; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil, and garnish with 2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and remaining tablespoon chervil. Top each serving of pasta with a ricotta-stuffed eggplant, and serve immediately.

- Easy Apricot Chicken (only 5 ingredients) If you’re a lover of sweet and sour, this chicken is a must-try. The sweet apricot acts as the perfect glaze for your chicken, and its sweet flavors are balanced with onion soup mix, mustard, and tangy salad dressing.
- Roasted Spring Vegetables. There’s nothing like picking those first few spring vegetables from your garden and tasting all your hard work. For those without a veggie patch, the farmer’s market is brimming with colorful vegetables, just dying to come home with you.
- Perfect Roasted Asparagus. Roasting asparagus is not only easy, but the best way to get the most out of the little green stalks. They’ll begin to crisp around the edges, and though they’ll still have a slight crunch, the middle will soften and melt in your mouth.
- Cracker Barrel Baby Carrots. I first made this dish as a last-minute side because I had a surprise dinner guest, and carrots were the only thing I had in the fridge.
- Mediterranean Roasted Artichoke Recipe. Artichokes are one of those vegetables that people shy away from. For a while, I wasn’t really sure what to do with a whole one and just stuck to canned artichoke hearts for my spinach dip.
- Creamy Roasted Carrot Soup. We might not be making hearty soups anymore, but there’s still a chill in the air. What’s better than a bowl of soup on a cool springtime day?
- Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipe. I don’t know of a better way of eating spinach. This dip is warm, savory, ultra-cheesy, and impossible to resist. The bacon in here adds such a lovely note to the dip, and the salty bites mixed in give it something special.
- Italian Pasta With Peas. Garden peas are such an overlooked vegetable. When you’ve picked them fresh, they are sweet, crisp, and a great way to add a little color to your food.
- Artichoke Soup. Artichokes have a buttery texture and a mild nutty flavor that is similar to Brussels sprouts or asparagus. When I found a bag of frozen artichoke hearts, I just knew I had to make this soup!
- Chipotle Guacamole Recipe. I think I miss fresh avocados the most during the winter months. They’re available in some stores, but often not quite right.

- 1. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Add the onion, celery and garlic, and season with salt and the red pepper flakes. Cook until the onions become translucent, 3-5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, sugar and 1 cup water, and cook for an additional 15-18 minutes over medium heat, stirring from time to time. Add 2 more tablespoons of the olive oil and blend the sauce in the blender until smooth. Taste for seasoning. Transfer to a large bowl.
- 2. In a large pot, bring the water to a rolling boil. Add the salt and bring the water back to a boil. Taste the water (it should be salty like seawater). Add the ziti and stir with a large, slotted spoon to ensure the pasta does not stick as it cooks. Cook until still quite firm, 8-10 minutes. Drain and drop into the bowl with sauce. Stir to blend.
- 4. In a medium skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the asparagus and zucchini with a pinch of salt and cook until tender, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the sauce.
