Gluten-Free Recipes to Celebrate What’s in Season in March

citrus-galette-8

As the gateway to spring, March brings with it an air of anticipation. It is when we begin to think forward and plan for the coming season – what we will wear, where we will go, what we will plant in our gardens, and (perhaps most importantly of all) what we will eat. But before we get too ahead of ourselves, let’s take some time to properly celebrate what’s in season in March – and enjoy them in these delicious transitional recipes:

Citrus

March is a lovely time to enjoy the tartly sweet flavor of oranges, lemons and grapefruits. Peak-season citrus is equally delicious in sweet and savory dishes. Some to try:

Cauliflower

The once-humble cauliflower has recently experienced a surge in popularity – and with good reason. The mild flavor acts as a blank canvas for your ingredients of choice, while the versatile texture can be used in so many ways.

Artichokes

People wait all winter long for artichoke season – and with good reason. The springtime delicacy is both beautiful and seriously tasty.

Asparagus

Another seasonal vegetable that just screams “spring,” asparagus is a versatile treat that can be grilled, roasted, steamed or simply eaten raw – and regardless, it will taste delicious.

Beets

Beloved nearly as much for their bold color as for their flavor, beets instantly add an element of beauty to any meal. Try them in a salad or one of these eye-catching recipes:

Strawberries

For a springtime dessert, there’s nothing like a simple bowl of fresh strawberries – but this sweet, red fruit can also be enjoyed in recipes that highlight their distinct flavor.
