With spring upon us and summer just around the corner, I'm feeling inspired to mix things up in the kitchen! I'm ready to say goodbye to hearty soups and hello to lighter fare, and I'm especially happy to welcome in a whole new collection of produce. I've rounded up some of the recipes from A House In The Hills that are inspiring me to welcome in the new seasons in an especially healthy and delicious way. Hope you love!

Sarah Yates, the intrepid personality behind the Cali-based blog A House In The Hills, is a photographer-come-chef with a serious knack for style. Ahead, the Jill-of-all trades has graciously compiled her favorite summer meal-time eye candy.
