When I think spring, it usually conjures up scents of lemon. The clean, fresh scent is a welcome addition to the beginning of the warm weather season.

And lemon on asparagus is absolutely amazing and is the perfect melding of fruit and vegetable. I baked the asparagus in the oven but it is just as good on the grill. Be careful not to overcook because the vegetable becomes tough and stringy.

I paired with rice noodles cooked with low-fat coconut milk but any rice or noodle work. The asparagus is also great on top of a salad so you may want to double-up the recipe.

ENJOY!

This is the first of two consecutive posts on bowls. They turned out really well and are extremely satisfying. You can, of course, try different veggies suited to your individual taste.

It is good both hot and cold and keeps in the refrigerator for a few days.

ENJOY!

Pesto always seemed a bit too rich for me and it wasn’t until I started to experiment with developing recipes without using the cheese that I realized just how much better it would taste.

The fragrant basil is perfectly balanced with the olive oil plus, without the cheese you loose a lot of the fat.

You can double the basil pesto sauce recipe and keep the extra, stored in an airtight container, in the refrigerator for up to a week. It is also great on baked potatoes, rice or cauliflower rice!

ENJOY!
