Seasonal Produce for January in Utah

Well, as you might expect, there is not much in season during the cold month of Janurary in Utah. Technically it is a dormant month but there is a variety of produce that is available from resources near to Utah. What we do have in Utah right now is a season of enjoying good movies... Sundance is almost here and I'll be posting soon about how to best enjoy the film festival as a local! But while you're not watching movies this month here are a few ingredients that are in season as well as some recipes to make with them.  Enjoy!
