Mike Hutcheson, a former executive chef for Anheuser Busch and sous chef at La Costa, a resort and spa in California, is a host of his own local cooking show, “Dishing With Mike.” The show airs throughout the week on Newnan Utilities but some of his cooking tips will now air on www.thecitizen.com, under Citizen TV.

Hutcheson, 46, has a passion for making fun food, fast. He enjoys discussing foods that are in season and presenting different, and often easier, ways to cook them.

In this episode, Hutcheson prepares a quick and easy Beefsteak Tomato Salad. This salad works as a perfect side dish for a summer cookout or a good lunch dish.
