It's easy to prepare simple, healthful, frugal meals this spring. Be sure to take advantage of the season's bounty by incorporating lots of fresh produce!
Here are some of my seasonal favorites. What are your most successful springtime suppers?
- Sauté fresh diced tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, and peppers in a little garlic and olive oil. Serve over rice or noodles.
- Sprinkle chopped, fresh basil over a salad made from slices of ripe tomato and fresh mozzarella cheese.
- Sauté thick slices of eggplant in a little garlic and olive oil. Top with diced tomatoes, a handful of breadcrumbs, and grated mozzarella cheese before removing from the pan.
- Bring to a boil: two cups of rice, two grated carrots, a cup of raisins, two cups of water, and three cups of chicken broth. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for thirty minutes. Serve seasoned with fresh parsley.
- Sauté fresh broccoli, tomatoes, garlic, and olive oil until the flavors are well-combined. Serve over poached chicken or fish.

Those look great Katie! I really hate running the oven when it starts to get warm, so I love none- oven meals. One that we like is sauteing onion in olive oil then mixing it with hard boiled eggs and spreading it on some really crusty french bread. Thanks for the ideas!
Yum Yum.. looks so delicious and healthy.. Thanks for the idea.
