The Eat Local Challenge 

The Challenge: to buy a week's worth of produce from the Medford Farmers Market, and to make those local vegetables the star of every meal for that week with as little waste as possible.

The Goals: to learn how to make the most of the farmers market! This project is all about experimenting with new recipes, learning how to use every part of the vegetable as well as learning from mistakes. The hope here is to help make it easier for other’s take advantage and use their local farmers markets to their full potential.

The Format: There will be a report on how each day went, recipes made, lessons learned along with hopefully helpful tips, followed by the recipes in posts to follow.

Most of the recipes I will be making will be made to have 2-4 servings, as I am mostly cooking for 1. Please remember that it is very easy to double these recipe to fit your needs! 

Let the Challenge Begin!
