(WTXL) — Florida Department of Agriculture and consumer Services' award wining Executive Chef and Culinary ambassador Justin Timineri and Chef Bridget Baxley joined WTXL on Friday.

Florida is home to about 47,000 agricultural producers. They don't all have the resources to promote their products so the Fresh From Florida initiative aims to connect those producers with consumers.

Friday, they talked about fun and simple recipes for tailgating that use Florida-grown ingredients. They brought four recipes to the studio:
