From spring rolls (obviously, you gotta have those in there) to salmon salad, here are 10 great meals to usher you into springtime.

The crunchy chickpeas and decadent fresh strawberry vinaigrette really tie this whole salad together!

If you’re looking for crisp, fresh and healthy, look no further. You can think of these grilled shrimp lettuce cups as spring tacos! And if you don’t like shrimp, no worries! You can substitute with large, dry-packed scallops, chicken strips or thin-sliced sirloin. In fact, most of this recipe is flexible and can be customized to your liking. Use whatever fruit you like or whatever’s on sale. Pineapple? Blueberries? Do it! Don’t have carrots or cucumbers? Serve with matchstick-cut zucchini, radishes or cooked edamame pods. Go crazy and make this recipe exceptionally yours!

Shrimp Fried “Rice” with Sesame Seeds

We’re going so egg-centric (🤭) this spring that we’re making shrimp fried rice without the rice! In fact, we’ve sidestepped the grain entirely and replaced it with a delectable mix of scrambled eggs enriched with coconut milk and hemp seeds to mimic that classic rice texture. And trust me, you won’t know the difference! Paired with succulent shrimp and garnished with sesame seeds, this dish is a delicious, low-carb reinvention of the beloved classic.
