Spring Vegetable Salad with Cucumber, Mint & Snap Peas
Have fun with this salad. Change the ingredients around a bit to make it pleasing to all the cooks and diners. The main flavors that make this dish so good when it’s done are the mint, feta, and lemon. The snap peas are my personal love in this dish, and they are fun to prepare.

Qeema Mutter (Curried Minced Beef with Peas)
One of my favorite recipes of my mother is Qeema Mutter. Whenever she used to make it I ended up eating most of it. This usually led to a scolding session by her, but then I would praise the dish so much she wouldn’t say a word after that.

Asparagus and Baby Vidalia Onion Salad with Lemon-Tarragon Viniagrette - The Cook's Cook
This salad absolutely sings spring. Asparagus has not traditionally been a Deep South crop, certainly not on a large scale. It requires a cold winter so that the plants can go dormant. The first time I saw asparagus growing was while visiting Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello outside of Charlottesville, Virginia.
