OMG a Recipe: O-M-Greens - Lost in the Antioxidant Jungle

You look in the fridge and realize you have a ton of produce, specifically leafy greens, and it's like a ticking time bomb. Except that instead of a terrible explosion, you're simply left with a sludgy pile of green goo and wasted food. NEVER AGAIN. The final installment of Oxbow Box Project: Part Deux, focuses on all those random veggies and greens you wind up with, whether you've gotten behind on eating your CSA goods or you went overboard at the farmers market and are in need of a Kale Intervention. However you got to this place, I feel your pain. Come and have a hug, and let's have a grown-up talk about Eating Your Greens.

OMG a Recipe: CSA-Curious Seeking LTR w/ Fresh, Seasonal Produce for Exciting Cooking Adventures

It's easy to fall into the routine of weekly recipes and organized grocery lists, but what about being a little spontaneous? Why not flirt with the mystery and excitement of a delivery of fresh, seasonal produce, and let your meals be swept away by a swarthy CSA box from Oxbow Farm? I was pleased to participate in this year's Oxbow Box Project, a great challenge for local food bloggers to get a big ol' box of seasonal summer produce and see what winds up on the table. If you're already a subscriber to one of the many CSA programs out there, you already know what this at-home Iron Chef-style of cooking is like, but if you've always been CSA-curious, I'm here to say, as Rob Schneider so often shouts in terrible Adam Sandler movies: YOU CAN DO IT!
