I prepared this dish for a fundraiser in City Market last week. I was asked to prepare something light and healthy that kids would enjoy. I had to laugh because “healthy” and “kids” don’t typically go hand in hand. But, at the suggestion of a friend, this was a good alternative. Flavorful and light without […]

“The more you practice, the luckier you get.” says Fat Patties owner Nick Borreggine with a genuine smile. Sometimes unforeseen situations present themselves that, in the end, all work out for the better (with lots of sweat equity, of course). Borreggine had owned another restaurant in the area, then during the dark days of the

What a great time we had making this salad with Paula. We used red onion (or purple) instead of Vidalia because they aren’t in season yet. It was delicious. I was honestly surprised how good it could be. Ingredients: 1 (5-pound) watermelon 1 Vidalia or other sweet onion 1/4 cup red wine vinegar Salt and

There are as many different chicken salad recipes in the South as there are people, I think. There’s another recipe on this website that I absolutely love…calls for garlic and green onions and all kinds of stuff. This one is different. Lighter, sweeter, cleaner tasting. If your mood calls for it, sub the apples for
