Food Truck Friday: Magnolia BBQ & Fish: We spent the morning with the team behind Magnolia BBQ & Fish, including founder Dameione Rogers.  Magnolia BBQ & Fish is a true family business; Dameione’s brother Darnell and sister Tresor are his partners in the business, and he uses his grandmother’s recipes in creating food truck’s award-winning menu.  Along with serving out of the truck, Magnolia BBQ & Fish bottled up its BBQ sauce and sells it in several local stores in South Atlanta and online.

Labor Day Brunch ideas with Little Rey:  Labor Day weekend is here and if you are looking for ideas for a Labor Day Brunch, Little Rey Chef Drew Belline has you covered.  Check out his Migas tacos recipe here.     

MIGAS BREAKFAST TACOS!

MIGAS

.5 cup vegetable oil

8 each corn tortillas,

1 tsp kosher salt (plus a pinch more for the tortillas)

1 each small onion, diced

1 each serrano pepper, sliced

1 each medium tomato, diced

8 each large eggs

1 cup grated cheddar cheese

½ bunch cilantro, chopped

· Pour the oil into a heavy medium pot and heat over medium-high heat to 350°F.

· Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into 1-inch squares.

· Separate the pieces and carefully add them to the hot oil. Fry, stirring continuously, until light golden and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the tortilla chips to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Immediately season with a light sprinkling of salt.

· Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the oil from the pot and return the pot to medium heat.

· Add the onion, serrano, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion starts to soften, 2 to 3 minutes, add the diced tomato and cook 2 minutes more.

· In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add the eggs to the pot and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs begin to set, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tortilla chips, cheese, and cilantro and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set, about 1 minute more.

· Reserve migas
