While you are waiting for your big Food Network break, try out Aaron McCargo Jr’s Chicken Parmesan, Lisa Garza’s White Bean Cassoulet or Kelsey Nixon’s Macadamia Crusted Tilapia with White Chocolate Beurre Blanc (hard to say, easy to make…easier to eat). Good luck!
I can hardly wait for the 5th installment of the Next Food Network Star. Season 4 proved to be the most interesting season yet with several truly qualified candidates. What amazed me the most was the contestants diversity in background, food knowledge, culinary point of view. I can only hope that season 5 will be even more of the top in both candidates and challenges!!
