If you&#8217;re lucky enough to find these curly little ferns that have yet to unfurl, which is how they got their name, you are in for a treat: They taste like a mix of asparagus or green beans with a touch of artichoke. <br \/>\nIn Ontario, they grow along muddy riverbanks (which wild &#8220;foodies&#8221; love to pick), but they recently ended up in my kitchen when I found them at my local grocery store. <\/p>\n<p>Fiddleheads are a wonderful source of vitamin A, C, potassium, and folate (the B-vitamin superstar for heart health and reduces the risk of birth defects). They are a wonderful addition to any meal as a tasty, vitamin and mineral-rich side dish or the main ingredient in a pesto. I was lucky enough to eat homemade fiddlehead ravioli at a friend&#8217;s house on the weekend. Her boyfriend is a seasonal foodie fanatic and my tastebuds were made to feel very joyous!<\/p>\n<p>Recipe after the jump.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/05\/17\/healthy-fiddlehead-recipe-with-lemon\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Healthy Fiddlehead Recipe with Lemon<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/05\/17\/healthy-fiddlehead-recipe-with-lemon\/\" rel=\"bookmark\" title=\"Permanent link to this entry\">Permalink<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/forward\/19474334\/\" title=\"Send this entry to a friend via email\">Email this<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/05\/17\/healthy-fiddlehead-recipe-with-lemon\/#comments\" title=\"View reader comments on this entry\">Comments<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Filed under: Health, Healthy Eating, Holistic Recipe It&#8217;s fiddlehead season in Ontario again and it only lasts a few short weeks.
