Upgrade your Easter menu with watercress

Spring has sprung which means Easter is around the corner! Do you have your menu planned for the big day?

The traditional Easter meal is a perfect transition from fall and winter comfort foods to lighter, brighter and healthier foods that will lead us into spring and summer.
