Iron Chef and so much more

Here they come, the whole school, without teachers, for 40 minutes

Real World 101

This month we arranged an 'After School Snack'  Iron Chef competition

Two teams of 4:

 two lead chef's - home cooks extraordinare -

Heather Cormier and Christopher Kapsha

and three aspiring home cooks each, to assist

Three judges, a table full of unknown ingredients

and 25 minutes to produce an after school snack

that would be judged on taste, appearance and originality

all to decide who would be named the first DISHS Iron Chef 

They really got into it,

both the teams, the judges AND the audience

 

Christopher's team was using bananas and ground beef

(Honestly, in small print, this made me kinda nervous)

Heather's team was chopping and stirring like crazy

The audience was shouting out encouragements and 

Renee and senior Drew Siebert MC'd the event, minute by minute

The results:

A bread bowl filled with spiced meat and served with

fresh salsa and corn chips

 

and:

A pan fried egg roll filled with ground beef, bananas,

onion and cheese

The winner:

The bread bowl got it for appearance

The egg roll won it for originality, and best taste

Iron Chef..... the beef and banana team!!!

Can you beat that? Who knew!

At the end, Renee asked who wanted to come taste the creations

Hands were flying

We all had a good time together,

 were inspired,

supportive,

 and encouraged to try something new

Nice way to start the weekend.

Enjoy yours,

Kyra
