Bobby Flay, Aetna Crown Insurer's "Healthiest Chef"

Aetna employees in Hartford earned a midweek treat Wednesday when celebrity chef Bobby Flay visited to judge the insurer's "Healthiest Chef" competition.

Six Aetna employees from around the country battled it out to win the title, but it was James Alexander, an account manager with Aetna subsidiary SRC from Columbia, S.C., who took the prize with his blue-cheese turkey burgers on whole-wheat rolls. Other recipes included green papaya soup, spinach and mozzarella-stuffed chicken breasts, Mediterranean vegetable lasagna, Italian crab cakes and grilled chicken citrus salad with mango vinaigrette.
