Spring is officially here, and that means we’ll soon have fresh seasonal produce to incorporate into our meals! 🌿
Eating foods that are in season has several benefits:
Higher in nutrients compared to foods shipped from a long distance.
Fresher tasting.
Fewer pesticides (especially if sourced from your own backyard/garden or local farmers market).
Provide your body with the nutrients it needs for the seasons we’re in.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, spring is the time for cleansing and rejuvenation, and spring produce is naturally rich in nutrients like glutathione that support these processes.
Eating foods that are in season this spring can lead to increased energy levels, better digestion, clearer skin, and enhanced well-being by supporting the body’s detoxification organs.
To help you make the most of what’s available this season, I’ve created a Spring Produce Guide highlighting what’s in season + a list of over 10 meals and sides you can make in 30 minutes or less.
