Recipes: Share these recipes with friends who love horses, racing


Thursday, April 24, 2008 9:23 AM CDT

  


Horse racing fans and those who call Louisville, Ky., home know the first Saturday in May is a much-anticipated cause for celebration. But more and more, the Kentucky Derby is becoming an unofficial holiday for everyone who appreciates the sport of kings, the arrival of springtime and - perhaps most importantly - some truly mouthwatering food.

You don't have to be born and raised in the South to appreciate this race-day menu, either.

Not only will your guests find these recipes delicious, you will appreciate how easily they come together in the kitchen. That leaves you more time to mingle with your guests and keep the mint juleps flowing!
