Hello football fans and welcome to another edition of Andre Taylor’s Tasty Tidbits! The college bowl season is over but the NFL playoffs are still going on. With that said, here’s some quick snack food to liven up the party. Being a Philly native (with no team to cheer on in the playoffs anymore), nothing says game time like a cheese steak! And nothing complements a cheese steak better than some fries. Today, I’m going to kick it up a notch and make some cheese steak egg rolls and loaded potato skins. Here’s what you will need: 3 pounds of thinly sliced beef sirloin 1 cup of shredded cheddar …

Hello everyone and welcome to the second installment of my holiday version of Andre Taylor's Tasty Tidbits! Today, I'm going to share my momma's recipe for some good old fashioned, yummy, back road down south collard greens! The mere mention of my momma's greens are enough to make my mouth water and rush me up Interstate-95 to Philadelphia to stand in line for a plate or two, or three or four. The recipe is very simple, but if you want to do it right, you have to buy the bushels of collard greens, not the canned kind. Sorry, I'm just saying. One of the biggest steps in preparing collard …
