Citrus Recipes That Will Make You Smile #SundaySupper

With winter coming to a close, right now is the perfect time to enjoy citrus! Citrus grows best in the winter months, and is perfect to usher in spring with its bright, pungent flavors. Of course, you can enjoy citrus year-round; many people attribute it to summer for its refreshing variety of tastes! Citrus is often the ingredient that adds just the right acidic punch to a dish, and many recipes would be incomplete without its inclusion. Think of the last time you squeezed a lemon over pasta, or vegetables, or even just into a glass of water — just for that extra kick!

Not only is citrus a versatile ingredient and tasty on its own, but there’s no doubting that it’s genuinely good for you, too! You can’t beat delicious and healthy!

Here are some healthy facts about citrus that you can smile about the next time you eat it:

The Health Benefits of Citrus

  • Citrus fruits contain their fair share of dietary fiber. Oranges and grapefruit both contain soluble fiber that helps lower your cholesterol, and insoluble fiber that helps your digestion.
  • Of course, citrus contains Vitamin C, an antioxidant that many people turn to for fending off the common cold!
  • Citrus has very few calories, boasting only its natural sugars and, of course, no fat or sodium!
  • Citrus amplifies the body’s ability to absorb the iron in food through Vitamin C.

With citrus and spring in mind, why not check out some of our other seasonal Sunday Supper recipes, like these 40+ Easy Spring Recipes, or our Recipes Welcoming Spring?
