Andrea Vaughn Givens was a contestant in the competition to win a “Girl’s Night Out” with Chef Carla Hall, one of the cast members of the ABC daytime show, The Chew.

Her recipe emerged as second place finalist above the thousands submitted. She prepared the Maryland crab dip she’s widely known for, with the assistance of cast member and restaurateur, Mario Batali.

Since all the dishes prepared in honor of Hall’s birthday were so great, the final three were all invited to participate in the Girl’s Night Out.
