Give your favorite dishes a citrus twist! These 5 spring recipes have all the fresh flavor

These spring recipes are here just in time for Easter!

We’re welcoming in the spring the best way we know how: citrus! It’s the springtime flavor standout. It just tastes like sunshine!

Amy Richardson shares five recipes that give classic dishes a citrus twist. Citrus is a springtime staple in Amy’s kitchen. She loves incorporating it into recipes this time of year. It brings such a fresh and light feeling to each dish.

 

Amy also shared three of her must-have tools when working with citrus:

LEMON ZESTER

This zester is sharp! You’ll love how easily it zests your citrus fruits. It doubles as a cheese grater, so you can save space in your kitchen drawer real estate.

LEMON ZEST PEELER

This peeler makes beautiful ribbons of zest. It’s great for when you want bigger strips of zest. Great for adding a few pretty peels to your fresh lemonade!

POCKET ZESTER

Out of all of Amy’s zesting tools, she says this is the one she reaches for the most. The closed compartment catches all the zest for you, so you don’t have to hold it over the bowl. It’s sleek and handheld design is easy to use.
