Add turkey eggs and allow to set-up for around 1 minute. Carefully put the spatula under the edges to get the egg off the bottom of the pan. Add chopped ramps over the top, salt and pepper to taste and then carefully flip the entire egg over.
Add one piece of picked garlic scape, one green olive, one piece of prosciutto and cube of manchego.

In a large pot (or Dutch oven) over medium heat add a little olive oil. Add chopped onion and cook for about 3 minutes until translucent. Do not brown.
Add Arborio rice and stir. Cook for a couple minutes until the rice develops a little sheen.
My favorite guacamole recipe growing up came from a kids cookbook. The dish was simple: ripe avocado, chopped tomatoes, chopped green onion, lemon juice, garlic powder and salt.

George Andreakos has been in love with acting for as long as he can remember. Ever since he was in grade school in Brooklyn he had the “acting bug”. His talent and passion for acting did not go unnoticed as he was casted as a lead or supporting actor in live plays. Yet it came a time when he had to give up acting for a while. He had a full-time job, College and started his own side business so acting did not fit into the equation.
There have been many film festivals that have taken part in the New York area and most of them are very similar in premise. Yet KATRA Films set a different standard where they look to present a unique avenue for all types of filmmakers. The creator Geoffrey Guerrero has been pushing the film series since 2012 and it has grown every year since. The festival is based on promoting tolerance, inclusivity, diversity and social justice.
