You know what they say about April showers? Well, there’s plenty more to be excited about in May than just those flowers. The month is packed full with happy occasions like Mother’s Day, the Kentucky Derby, and graduations galore. The farmers’ markets are just starting to rev up with seasonal produce for all of your summer cooking. And there are delicious treats to be made, like our five show-stopping iterations on classic strawberry shortcake and Mama Dip’s famous rum cake. Before dessert, though, indulge in five ready-in-a-flash shrimp suppers, fresh field pea recipes to get you through the season, and a new take on old-school chicken spaghetti. Round it all out with an ice-cold Mint Julep, inspired by the crowd-favorite recipe served at Zero George in Charleston, South Carolina. It’s time to welcome the beginnings of summertime with 19 new recipes to make in May.
