21 Quick Spring Recipes So You Can Enjoy the Outdoors

Because you’ve got better things to do than cook when the weather is nice

By SAVEUR Editors


Published on April 5, 2018

Spring is upon us, and we've had fresh salads and all kinds of other delicious spring food. But when there isn't enough time to relax and cook, there are still ways to get a quick spring fix. If you're running late for work, make a spring-inspired breakfast with some butter-basted eggs, and add some fresh fruit to some sour-milk griddle cakes. Salads and soup are always a fast option for a midday meal, and you can keep it fresh with a radish, goat cheese, and cilantro salad or a chilled avocado soup. Dinner doesn't have to take a long time either, a quick artichoke-filled pasta or swiss chard and chipotle tacos will save you time and utilize some that fresh spring produce. Here are our best spring recipes to save you time.
