I tend to always have several lemons always knocking around the shelves of my pantry because they are a perfect way to add flavour and freshness to any dish. When my lemon supply starts to get out of hand I often turn to one of my favorite citrus recipes to start using up my stash. It was only a matter of time before I created a whole menu devoted to my favorite yellow fruit. As it is winter here in Sydney it is the perfect way to get a big dose of Vitamin C, essential in fighting off all the pesky colds that hang around in gloomy weather.

Ah this is perfect! My parents have an over productive lemon tree and are constantly trying to palm off lemons. Will definitely check out your lemon recipes (finally, new uses for my lemons!)

lemons really brighten many sweet and savory dishes.br /br /and your pictures brighten everyone#39;s day!
I#39;m with you–I LOVE lemons. they are great in nearly everything–salad dressing, pastas, rubs for meats, grilled things, and of course…baking.
The reminder on the asparagus is good since we still have some left from the garden. Not many leamons right now. Just love your blog and you.
I would LOVE to sit down to that menu – lemon is one of my favorites!
Gorgeous sounding menu! Agree, I also have lemons hanging about. They#39;re always needed somehow!
Citrus is so light and breezy, and it#39;s perfect for these outdoor summer dinners we#39;ve been having every week. I can#39;t decide which I#39;d rather try first, the risotto or the ice cream!
lemon is a very favorite of mine … love that menu ..; lovely blog Megan ..
I#39;m a big fan of lemon, so this menu sounds fantastic! Your asparagus with hollandaise looks beautiful.
