Recipe to Try: Fig and Goat Cheese Salad

Four Seasons Hotel Atlanta executive chef Michael Patria is back with another easy and healthy recipe. As chef Patria embarks on a weight loss journey this summer, each month he’s sharing a nutritious recipe that he’s been loving lately.

“This is something I like to snack on late-morning or mid-afternoon. It’s a great pick-me-up because of the natural sugars from the figs and the honey. Goat cheese is a lower fat cheese, so it keeps you full while not overdoing your calorie intake,” Patria says.
