Symbolic of the season, packed with goodness and so versatile, eggs are the highlight this month. As any hen keeper will know, eggs are plentiful right now – and may well already be the dish of the day. They’re delicious when simply boiled, poached or fried, but eggs are the foundation of many a recipe and a great, neatly packaged standby. It’s useful to have a handy supply of egg-based meals on hand at any time of the year, but Easter seems an especially appropriate moment to celebrate them and welcome in the spring. Cute nutty nests packed with cream, fruit and chocolate eggs make a great Easter dessert and are hard to resist. Make these mini pavlovas (slightly) more healthy with extra fruit, or give in to the treat of the holiday and pile on the mini eggs.
