Recipes

 

From Steve Fritz, (Roux-en-Y October, 2000 and Success Story #8) will graduate from chef school in December, 2005. He has lost about 360 pound and is still losing!!! Steve has offered some recipes that are fun to make, are healthy and great to eat.

 

A few words from Steve:

Eating is a personal thing, not to mention necessary. I struggled in the beginning because I missed those old flavors. The many surgeries I had "burned out" my taste buds and I became bored and frustrated with eating and stopped. I craved spicy food, so I used good old Tabasco on everything. My taste buds are back but, Tabasco is still around; in smaller portions. By the way, Tabasco is the secret ingredient in so many dishes at school. Most soups and stocks have just enough added to accentuate the flavors. 

 

 
Another thing, recipes are guidelines. Every chef takes a recipe he likes, tweaks it, adds something, and leaves something out and makes it his. If you don't like something in a recipe, leave it out or exchange it. My sons would never eat the shrimp so, I used chicken, evened out the lime and orange juice and called it Citrus Chicken Barbeque and Corn. I don't tolerate nuts in my food very well since the surgery so I keep them out of my food. If I'm cooking for others and they like nuts, I may toast them and divide the final product and put nuts in their half. 

 

Enjoy!!
