Mixed Citrus Green Salad and a Trip to Birmingham
I’m ending my OCD recipe contest rant by highlighting my biggest prize and honor—my first and only cook-off, Cooking Light’s “Ultimate Reader’s Contest,” 2009. I entered twenty-six recipes, everything from Chipotle Chicken Salad to Healthier Hoppin’ John. I was totally unprepared with what the editors picked: Mixed Citrus Green Salad. A salad? How the heck…
