April is here and it’s time to start planning your seasonal menu. Spring produce is peaking and it’s the perfect opportunity to incorporate in-season vegetables and fruits like asparagus, strawberries, peas, artichokes, carrots, apricots, pineapples, and more.

 

Plus, with spring comes a flurry of activities, whether you’re planning picnics and alfresco dining; gearing up for spring break and in need of easy weeknight meals in the lead-up; or planning Easter or Passover gatherings.

 

We’re here to help—check out our recipe recommendations this month. There’s something for every occasion!

This classic brisket is slow-braised in the oven with plenty of onions, which get nice and soft and sweet. Evan Bloom and Leo Beckerman, of the extremely popular Wise Sons Jewish Delicatessen in San Francisco, gave us the recipe.
