We would like to extend a hearty "Thank You" to all who participated in the "What's for (your Holiday) Dinner?" Healthy-for-You Recipe Contest! Most especially, we would like to express our gratitude to Toni Messina of Catholic Social Services' Piedmont-Triad Office and her winning recipe for Honey-Orange Broccoli Salad.
