There is something very particular to spring that makes us want to eat accordingly. Of course, summer foods are a given and joyful in their own right, but is there anything more refreshing than eating in line with a season that sparks new life? Tender greens are often what we turn to, new shoots and herby flavours. Before summer fruits take centre stage, lean on the greens in all their glory.
In celebration of this, we're sharing this spring recipe of salmon and lemon potato salad from the Fluiform Pilates October Meal Plan developed with nutritionist, Jo Kate Whitehead. Spring peas, fresh rocket, and a mountain of herbs come together for freshness and versatility, making it a perfect lunch for one or dinner side for many.
