Love & Lemons Cooking Club - April!

Join the Love & Lemons Cooking Club Challenge this month! It's easy to enter, and one lucky winner will receive a prize. Find all the details below.

Our Cooking Club is a fun way to celebrate the Love & Lemons community of readers. The concept is super simple—each month, I choose a recipe. You make it, and you leave a comment on the recipe’s blog post. At the end of the month, I randomly select one winner to receive a prize.

I love the sense of community that comes from so many people cooking one recipe each month. We’re kicking off our April challenge today with our lentil salad recipe, and I hope you’ll join in the fun. Here’s how it works:

Join the Love & Lemons Cooking Club

Each month, I choose one seasonal recipe. Sign up for our email list so you’ll know as soon as I share each month’s recipe.
Make that recipe during the month.
Leave a comment on the challenge recipe’s blog post by the end of the month. This time, the deadline is April 30!
For a bonus entry, send a picture of what you made to LoveAndLemonsCookingClub@gmail.com.
For another bonus entry, post your photo on Instagram, tagging @loveandlemons and #loveandlemonscookingclub.

The Prize: A $200 Whole Foods Gift Card!

At the end of the month, I’ll randomly select a winner and share some of your photos. This time, we’re giving away a $200 Whole Foods gift card.

April’s Recipe: Lentil Salad

If you’re craving bright, fresh spring meals, you’ll love this month’s recipe: my lentil salad!

This hearty salad features a zingy lemon dressing, crisp veggies, and a big handful of fragrant herbs. It’s exactly what I want for lunch on a warm spring day. Luckily, it’s great for meal prep, and it packs up perfectly for picnics too!

To make this recipe vegan, skip the feta. Toss in some extra olives for salty, briny flavor!

Last Month’s Recipe

You had two recipe options for last month’s cooking club. You could make my easy enchiladas with cheese or these vegan enchiladas.

I have to say, I’m impressed! So many of you made your own enchilada sauce, and a few readers made homemade tortillas. Thank you for putting so much into this month’s challenge!

Here are some of your photos:

And congrats to our winner Ruby!
