In Season Now: Figs! π
It's Fig Season!Growing up, my only exposure to figs was in Fig Newtons. My grandmother turned me onto fresh figs many years ago just before she died, and I've loved them ever since. They're so sweet and luxurious, and they remind me of her every time I eat them. Aside from eating them as-is, my favorite way to use them is in my fig honey jam or arugula fig salad. If you love fresh figs as much as I do, be sure to check out my collection of 27 Best Fig Recipes for inspiring ways to use them. Not only will you gain access to recipes, but you'll learn nutrition benefits, how to choose and store them, and much more! What's your favorite way to enjoy fresh figs? Hit reply and let me know! Happy cooking! Marcie Fresh Fig Recipes

Hi Reader, I'm in disbelief that we're over halfway through June already! I've had summer desserts on my mind A LOT lately (I've been especially craving fruit crisp!), so I thought I'd round up a collection of Fourth of July dessert ideas. They're all festive, they feed a crowd, and they can be made in advance. And there's no reason why you have to wait until the Fourth to make these. It's summer after all and these recipes make the most of it. :) Before we get to those, I've got a new recipe...
Hi Reader, I was at the farmers market this weekend and loved seeing all the spring produce making its appearance! The vibrant greens, the first strawberries of the season, and those perfect bundles of asparagus had me filling my bags and rushing home to cook. April truly marks the turning point when winter's hearty staples give way to spring's lighter, brighter flavors. There's something so energizing about cooking with the seasons, don't you think? π This is why I'm particularly excited to...
