Recipe Roundup: Baking with Rhubarb

It has been a long, cold winter in the Midwest. These first days of spring make me very anxious for the farmers markets to begin and for the return of local fruits and vegetables. Rhubarb is always one of the first things out of the gate and I greet it with excitement and appreciation. These tart stalks can be transformed into something delicious with the help of a little sugar and heat. So, as rhubarb season quickly approaches, here are some recipes to inspire you:
