Spring is here! I'm not sure if it's because this past week was spent 'springing forward' or if it's a change in the weather lately, but I can see Spring quickly taking over! There's nothing that welcomes spring in more than a nice effervescent beverage that's full of the good stuff.

What good stuff? Fresh fruit, berries, and herbs straight from the garden! I'm really lucky to have fresh herbs and a lemon tree at my disposal. Two of my favorite spring fruits are lemons and blackberries. This is a classic flavor combination that always adds a little happy to my day, and trust me, I need some happy lately.

Blackberries have always been a favorite of mine. I remember when I was little and we lived on the coast of Oregon for a few years. Once the sun started to sprout through the coastal clouds, I knew it was the time of year when blackberries ran rampant. I could literally walk out into my backyard and pick a basket of perfectly ripe blackberries. Yum. ...Oh, how I miss those days!...

Pesto & Chicken Tortellini Soup

April 24, 2014 Amanda Plott

A while back I made this Tortellini en Brodo soup, which is not only one of my favorites, but also a favorite of my mothers. I could seriously eat that soup at least once a week for the rest of my life and never get tired of it. Yes. It's that good.

With spring in full swing and with fresh basil and pesto all around... I wanted to use the same basic idea from my Tortellini en Brodo in a more spring/summer friendly version of the soup...

Skinny Lemon Dill Chicken

April 5, 2013 Amanda Plott

​I was looking for some spring inspiration and came across this one recipe. It sounded good, but I was looking for something a little more simple (and that perhaps didn't involve frying.) Pan or otherwise.

This is a fantastically easy and equally delicious ​recipe. Perfect for spring!

I ended up grilling my chicken inside on my counter top grill, but this would be just as great (if not better) grilled on the the real deal.​

Berry Spinach Salad & Lemon Poppy Seed Vinaigrette

March 24, 2013 Amanda Plott

I'll admit, I wasn't quite ready for spring yet this year. I've had a case of the springtime-blues. I'll take all the cool weather I can get here in Texas, but I can already feel the daunting heat of summer rearing it's ugly head. We've already hit the 90's, ugh!

I paired this is a lovely spring inspired lemon poppyseed vinaigrette with a spinach salad that's clearly gearing up for summer!​ Eating this for lunch has really given me a kick in the right direction to stave off those springtime-blues...
