	Grilled Chicken, Chevre on Portabello Mushroom by Jason Freund I don't know the official title for this, but we used to order this appetizer from Arman's restaurant in Birmingham, AL all the time.

Tonight, we…	2 votes 2507 views
	Penne Pasta Salad by Jason Freund Great for picnics; leftovers hold for several days. Mix of garlic, lemon, olive oil, and feta cheese gives this a great flavor. Source: The Country Deli, Mt View, CA. One of the best deli / lunch places I've been to.	3 votes 1 review 1 comment 24484 views

If I have to make due with…	1 vote 7773 views
	Panna Cotta with Raspberry Coulis by Jason Freund I'm not going to lie to you. This recipe is very technical, and it must be followed precisely, or else the results will be bad.
