Spring has finally sprung and my taste buds are thinking about yummy food more attuned to the season, which often means lemony goodness. Kraft Recipes site has become a go-to for me when looking for new ideas. I came across this easy treat and Kraft had this to say: “Our blintz is a great airy and lemony alternative to the usual brunch bake. Try this fluffy, not-too-sweet blintz made with Neufchatel and ricotta cheese.”
