February Seasonal Produce Guide

5 Recipes to Make in February

Frisée Citrus Salad with Fennel and Avocado

​This Frisée Citrus Salad with Fennel and Avocado is a simple yet elegant salad that’s bright, refreshing and so easy to make! The winter citrus is definitely the star here.

Sausage, Sweet Potato, and Egg Breakfast Casserole

Start those cold mornings with this hot Sausage, Sweet Potato, and Egg Breakfast Casserole recipe. It’s high in protein, lasts a few days, and is ready when I wake up (because it’s a make-ahead recipe!)

Creamy Kabocha Squash Mash

​This creamy, cozy, and naturally sweet Kabocha Squash Mash recipe has fewer ingredients and less sweetener than a sweet potato casserole, but every bit of the holiday flavor. And it’s perfectly delicious on a regular weeknight.

Spaghetti Squash Lasagna

​This Spaghetti Squash Lasagna recipe is my low-carb winter solution for a family favorite. All the decadent flavors of classic lasagna atop delicious roasted spaghetti squash.

Lemon Pudding Cake

​This Lemon Pudding Cake is light, fluffy, creamy, and my absolute favorite lemon dessert. Plus it’s actually easy to make and there’s even a gluten-free option.

(And Thursday night if there’s a game.)
