Baked Citrus
Being an Arizona native, I have written my share of school papers on the 5 C’s of Arizona. These were, back in the day, Arizona's five biggest selling points. They are copper, climate, cotton, cattle, and last but certainly not least, citrus. In celebration of our amazing citrus and a delicious to make it more easily digestible, my recipe for this month, or first quarter, is baked citrus.
