Lemons are one fabulous fruit. These citruses are high in vitamin C, loaded with fiber and vitamin B-6, bountiful and cheap. You have the flexibility to use lemons for both savory and sweet applications, so why not try them out with one of these recipes below! Show lemons off like the star they are.

Lemon Sauce

Simply adding fresh lemon juice to any pasta dish will make it brighter and more flavorful. Mixing it with a cheese like ricotta especially will make your pasta creamy, but not too heavy. Add in whatever greens you have on hand and you having a fulfilling dish!

Lemon Curd

This British staple is both tangy and sweet and can be spread on just about anything and made delicious. This seemingly difficult spread actually only has two other ingredients besides the star, lemon: egg yolks and sugar! Combine all three ingredients in a saucepan, heat over medium-low stirring constantly until it becomes thick. Keep it in your fridge or give it as a gift!

Lemon Sorbet

Using only a  food processor you can have delicious lemon sorbet! Create a simple syrup, add it to the food processor with ice and lemon juice, blend, and you’re done!
