Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Spring Recipes

The best Spring recipe to celebrate the season! Healthy and easy recipes highlighting local produce including asparagus, strawberries, fiddleheads, etc.

It has officially been Spring for a while now but it’s just finally starting to feel like it! What’s more is that I am finally seeing some spring produce in the grocery stores and that brings with it the promise of many good things to come! With that in mind I figured that it was time to roundup some of my favourite spring recipes using fresh ingredients like asparagus, strawberries, ramps, fiddleheads, peas, fava beans, artichokes, etc. I am definitely looking forward to making some of these recipes again and trying out some new ones using the fresh spring produce! This certainly is an exciting time of year, with the sun shining and the warming weather we can head out doors where the world is once again turning green; the perfect time to head out for BBQ’s, picnic’s etc!

    Oh, WOW. The vegetables, baked into sumptuous crusts and pastries – the colours, the shades! You've covered everything from sweet to savoury and it's all equally mouthwatering. And all this in a closet??

    Kevin, how do you manage to pull out all the stops on sooo many fabulous dishes?? I want this one, that one, and those. :). Your dishes always are so tantalizing!! Perfect for bringing some warmth into a pretty cool spring. At least here in MN, it hasn't felt like spring yet…more like we've just slowly meandered away from winter little by little. We are all sooo ready to eat dishes like yours under some warm sunshine!
