Lime
Limes are a high acid citrus fruit. They are vibrant green, generally smaller and more acidic than their counterpart, the lemon. Limes many recipes both sweet and savory.
Limes are becoming more popular in the culinary world. Just as lemons, they are used in food preparation, in cocktails, and in household cleaners as well. Be sure to use the zest of the lime as well as the juice.
Limes are fine to keep on the counter but they will last longer if stored in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. TIP- roll your citrus fruits on the counter before using, it will give you a higher amount of juice

The idea for this one came from Damn Delicious, and lives up to it’s name. Who knew a protein explosion could taste so good? The spices and veggies are flexible, but the technique of putting uncooked quinoa into the pot to make a one pot meal is quite handy!
Thank you to fellow Springdellian, Dawn DeMeo, for this recipe. I love different herb butters and they freeze so well you can enjoy them year round. Save some of this one for corn on the cob!
This one is a quick and fresh way to enjoy your local ingredients. If you have a spiralizer, or a penchant for cutting a matchstick julienne, this is the recipe for you! It calls for agave syrup, but I believe honey would work as well!
