What comes to mind when you think of spring dinner ideas? Maybe a simple and fresh appetizer spring vegetables with bagna cauda? A spring pea pasta recipe with a certain glazed shallots and crusty bread for the main event? Carrot cake for dessert? Whatever your desire, whatever the dish, we imagine it draws on spring produce, because why not? It’s the best, especially after months and months of root vegetables.
The main dishes you’ll find below do what we all want, which is to say they contain fresh herbs, asparagus, snow peas, artichokes, leeks, spinach, watercress… It’s almost a shame, the wealth of green things that accompany the season. Almost.
So pour a glass of white wine and get ready, because here are our favorite vegetarian spring dinner ideas.
