Penne Pasta with Roasted Asparagus

by Lynnda Cloutier from Mission Viejo, CA

You can enjoy this penne with roasted asparagus as a side dish or spring dinner. Besides sprinkling with pine nuts or almonds, you could also add grilled chicken. Roasting the asparagus brings out its savory flavor and helps to keep it still slightly crunchy. The roasted asparagus and penne pasta is tossed in lemon juice, chicken stock, and Parmesan cheese to create a lovely light sauce. Simple and delicious. Here’s the recipe.

Chicken Stuffed With Goat Cheese and Basil

Strawberry Fields Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing and Candied Pecans

by Melissa K. Hand from Spring Hill, TN

Every aspect of this delicious and fresh salad deserves a Blue Ribbon. The mixture of greens adds lots of interest and flavor. There are slices of strawberries and crumbles of blue cheese throughout the salad. The crunch from the candied pecans is lovely. Coated in a spice mix made with cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, we could snack on them all day. Drizzled on top is a sweet and tangy poppy seed dressing that complements all the flavors of the salad. It’s one of the best homemade poppy seed dressings we’ve had. We opted not to add the sliced red onion, but it would add the perfect bite. Enjoy this salad on a warm day with grilled chicken or fish.

Minted Pea Spring Potato Salad

by Sandra McGrath from Harrisville, RI

While this is called potato salad, it’s not the traditional creamy potato salad you think of from a BBQ. It’s really a side dish filled with fresh mint, parsley, potatoes, peas, and hard-boiled eggs. It’s a fresh salad perfect for spring. Everything is dressed in a light lemony dressing that adds a little zing to the salad. A fresh Easter side dish option. Here’s the recipe.
