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 and grilling on the patio. CAN’T WAIT. Until then we’re kicking off the month with 31 delicious, healthy recipes to make in March that you guys are going to love.
In this month’s roundup I picked out all of the goods from breakfast & brunch to dinner and easy sides. You’ll find 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. These might just be the best St. Patty’s Day treats you’ll ever eat.
Get ready for bright, flavorful recipes using citrus, and a sneak peek for Easter with healthy carrot cake recipes. I hope you find some new favorite recipes to make this month. If you make any of these, be sure to leave a comment and let me know how you liked it! You can also share a photo of your creation on Instagram with the hashtag #ambitiouskitchen. Enjoy xoxo!

Lovely round-up friend! Such a user friendly way to figure out what’s in season and what to cook. Plus, those wraps and cookies look BOMB 😀 😀 😀
Thanks Dana! Absolutely. The wraps + cookies are LIFE <3 <3
I have just discovered you and love the look of your recipes
Great! Hope you find some that you love 🙂
Nothing beats a spring menu than recipes with fresh fruit and simplistic vegetables! I definitely need to make a vegan carrot cake, lemon blueberry pancakes, and a spring green curry. Just give me a whole platter of those chickpea salad wraps and I’d be the happiest gal in the world!!
Absolutely!! And love those salad wraps. SO GOOD.
Hi Monique! I have been following your site and making your recipes for several months now. I am enjoying your content and love that you are a fellow Chicago gal. Help! I have a TreeNut (includes coconut) and peanut allergy and want to keep making your recipes. When appropriate, can you make suggestions for the best flour, oil, etc that isn’t nut based? Us allergy gals like to be healthy too!
