From Laura Dolson, your Guide to Low Carb Diets
It's spring and my weekly box from a local farm is filling with greens and asparagus. I also live near the "artichoke capitol of the world", and I happen to love them. So let's celebrate spring with fresh veggies! Have a great weekend - Laura

Oven-Roasted (or Grilled) Asparagus
Not only do I love the taste of asparagus, I love how super-easy is it to fix.

How to Cook Greens
It's hard to overestimate how good leafy greens are for us - they are simply packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and other good thing. We really should eat at least one serving of greens every day!

How to Cook Artichokes (plus carb info)
Did you know that some people lack the enzyme that makes artichokes taste good? To them, it's almost tasteless. (Even then you could use them as a vehicle for this tasty Lemon Butter Sauce). Artichokes may look intimidating, but they aren't hard to cook, and they're fun to eat!

Spinach Salad with Hot Bacon Dressing
The version of this in restaurants often has a surprising amount of sugar. This version of the classic spinach salad can easily be made into a meal by adding chopped cooked chicken or turkey.
