I love fresh spring peas. Though they may take a few minutes to peel from the pods and drop into a bowl, the fresh sweet taste is well worth the effort. This dip is created entirely from fresh spring peas, steamed lightly and combined with a few simple ingredients into a delicious spread that is fantastic as a vegetable dip, with some crunchy chips or spread atop crusty french bread with a slice of radish and a sprinkle of sea salt.

Now that the warmer weather has arrived, I am once again in love with salads. I get my cold green salad fix for lunch, but for dinner I really love a heartier salad, with beans or lentils, warmed, to fill and satisfy. This delicious Middle Eastern inspired salad fits the bill. Warm green lentils with a tangy lemon garlic sauce tossed with spicy arugula, sweet, sour tomatoes and salty halloumi. A salad fit for a spring night on the patio.

Here are three of my favourite ways to save on food in the summertime- and one tip on how to save all year long.
