SPRING PRIMAVERA
I found this recipe on a bunch of fresh Dole asparagus. We like lots of veggies, so I added in a zucchini and some cremini mushrooms. I also stirred in some fresh parsley and oregano before serving.

Tips:
- Use seasonal vegetables: Spring is a great time to find fresh, local vegetables. Look for asparagus, peas, carrots, radishes, and artichokes.
- Blanch your vegetables: Blanching vegetables helps to preserve their color and nutrients. To blanch vegetables, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the vegetables and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Immediately transfer the vegetables to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Use a variety of cooking methods: Don't be afraid to experiment with different cooking methods. Try roasting, grilling, sautéing, or steaming your vegetables. This will add flavor and variety to your dish.
- Add some herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can help to brighten up the flavor of your dish. Try adding some fresh basil, thyme, rosemary, or oregano. You can also add some dried spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Serve with a light dressing: A light dressing can help to tie all the flavors together. Try making a simple vinaigrette with olive oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard. You can also add some chopped herbs or nuts to your dressing.
Conclusion:
Spring is a great time to enjoy fresh, seasonal vegetables. With a little planning and effort, you can create delicious and healthy primavera dishes that the whole family will love. So get creative in the kitchen and experiment with different recipes. You're sure to find some new favorites.
