This tart came to me on a wintry, snowy day when something cozy was the only thing that would do. There are quite a few steps to this tart, but I had everything I needed in the house! It’s the perfect thing to share with company or reheat a day or two later.

The timing of this month’s guide couldn’t be more perfect. I’ve been battling a cold since Christmas Day, and although the worst of it is over, I can tell you for a fact that this tea soothes an uneasy stomach and encourages stuffy nasal cavities to loosen up. Ginger and honey are classic remedies for upset stomach and sore throats, respectively, and the benefits of orange and pomegranate peels were new news to me. Both are high in vitamin C and calcium. Orange peel tea has been used to treat heartburn and indigestion, and pomegranate peel tea has been used to soothe sore throats. One thing to keep in mind when purchasing your fruit for this tea: Organic is absolutely best, as peels touched by chemicals tend to absorb those chemicals.

Every so often, I like something a little sweet for breakfast — like carrot cake. But we can’t bite into a big hunk of sugar every morning, so I transformed that cake favorite into a (much healthier) granola version.

Peanut butter and cocoa? Those are some year-round flavors, and this has become my year-round granola choice. The add-ins depend on the season: dried golden raisins or dried cranberries in the fall and winter, then switch to fresh berries for spring and summer.

These creamy (and rather healthy) ice pops were surprisingly refreshing — thanks to the lime, most likely. I can imagine what a splash of tequila would add to these pops…

I’ve been dying to make squash blossoms, but I’m always too late to the farmer’s market to nab a fresh bunch. Not only did I get a bunch recently — but they were buy-one-get-one! It took a little bit of time to gently work with the blossoms, but it was so worth it. These crispy and creamy little purses are phenomenal.

Getting to the roasted berry mixture was like a little treasure hunt with these ice pops. I probably ate them faster than necessary just so I could find a blueberry or raspberry in the mix.

I used strawberries, but any berry would do. This recipe was surprisingly simple for such a gorgeous result. Sure, you have to take the time to drain the yogurt over night, but otherwise — not many ingredients or steps at all! This is a dessert to brag about, and it would be perfect for the Fourth of July.

You could probably consider this to be a tea cocktail, but this tea IS made of merely dried flowers! I prefer to use loose, dried chamomile flowers in my teas because the flavor comes across as far more floral and less herbal than the tea bags. This is the perfect light, refreshing cocktail for a hot summer afternoon.

The original recipe does call for gin, but I happened to have tequila on hand (OK, and I’m not much of a gin drinker). Use what you will, as long as you can highlight the rhubarb! This definitely became my spring cocktail of choice. Enjoyed on my deck during the warm days that have finally rolled around!
