Looking for fresh, sunny recipes brimming with fresh herbs? This collection of 30 Fabulous Recipes Brimming with Fresh Herbs in all categories, from beverages and appetizers to soups, salads, and entrees are absolutely verdant with aromatic, healthful fresh green herbs.

Is there anything better than a cool, verdant dip into a green herbal dish? Those refreshing, aromatic green herbs, such as basil, mint, cilantro, parsley, tarragon and oregano, offer so much life and health to your plate. Whether you’re feasting on a herb rich beverage, salad, soup, entree, side dish, or even dessert, a touch of green herbs offers so much zest and appeal to your favorite foods, not to mention health bonuses. Just think what mint does for iced green tea, cilantro for a crunchy veggie salad or lentil patties, and basil for a grain salad and grilled eggplant? In celebration of all that is fresh green and herbal, I asked some of my favorite food bloggers to share their best recipes in this collection of 30 Fabulous Recipes Brimming with Fresh Herbs.
