March is here, the days are getting longer, and we’re that much closer to spring. I’m counting down the days until I’m back riding my bike on the lakefront path, taking Sidney and our new baby boy to the beach, and grilling on the patio. Until then we’re kicking off the month with 31 seasonal, healthy recipes to make in March that you’re going to love.

What’s in season in March?

Colorful produce is coming back! Pretty soon we’ll be cooking with all of the berries, but for now be sure to stock up on:

• Asparagus
• Broccoli
• Brussels Sprouts
• Cabbage
• Carrots
• Cauliflower
• Citrus
• Greens
• Mushrooms
• Peas
• Spinach
• Sweet Potato

P.S. did you know we have dedicated ingredient pages? YES! Click any of the produce names above to see all of those recipes, or head to our Recipe Index to filter by even more.

This month you’ll find sweet & savory breakfasts, fresh lunch ideas that are perfect to prep for work or eat on-the-go, cozy one pan meals, and some of my fav desserts to make this time of year.
