2021 Mystery Ingredient Challenge: black beans, maple syrup, plain yogurt and zucchini.

  What dish would you create with Animal    Crackers, Pear, Craisins and Vanilla Creamers? 

  This was the challenge several brave chefs and chef teams took on over the week of winter break.  They transformed these 4 ingredients into creative recipes. 

  Take a look at the pictures below!

 
The final Mystery Challenge of 2021 will take place at the end of March/beginning of April with a special surprise.   Stay tuned....

Students in grades 4-8 were invited to join our first ever Mystery Ingredient Challenge, based on the Food Network TV show "Chopped". 

Student chefs picked up bags of 4 mystery ingredients and had a week to create a dish.  They had to incorporate all  4 ingredients into an original recipe.  They could, if they wanted to, supplement their recipes with items from home too.
The Mystery Ingredients were:
Goldfish Crackers, Granny Smith Apple, Carrot, Beef Stick
Check out the slide shows below to see the creative recipes our young "master chefs" came up with!
