Spring Preview: 8 Spring Recipes to Fight the Winter Blues

February 22, 2013 by MrFoodTestKitchen

I don’t know about you, but this is probably my least favorite time of year. At the beginning of winter, you get to break out those boots you paid way too much for while snuggling up with a mug of hot cocoa, admiring just how beautiful the snow looks. Once the holidays are over, however, and February continues to drag on, I start giving dirty looks to every pile of half-melted snow I see, hoping that it’ll transform into just one little patch of green grass.

While my Harry Potter-esque magic hasn’t quite developed yet, I do know one way to blissfully ignore the dull, dreary winter weather: spring cooking. If evil eye glares won’t get the warmer weather to arrive, perhaps some cheery spring recipes will do the trick. (Yes, it’s probably crazy. No, I will not try to be more logical.)

If you’re also impatiently waiting for spring, then you’re in luck because our friends over at MrFood.com have just the recipes you need to create a spring oasis in your very own kitchen. Check out the variety of spring recipes below!
