Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to a cutting board tray for capturing foodstuffs removed from the cutting board. The cutting board tray comprises a a planar base portion configured to be positioned between a bottom surface of a cutting board and a support surface on which both the cutting board and tray are positioned; at least one raised edge extending perpendicular from the base portion; and at least one open edge. In various embodiments, the planar base portion is sufficiently thin that the cutting board remains stable when a contact portion of the bottom surface of the cutting board is positioned on the base portion.
