Last Chance: "Chopped" Competition

The "Chopped" Competition is Tuesday November 22 at 3PM in the Community Room! (AKA Tomorrow!) For those who have not yet signed up, today could be your last chance to come show off your cooking skills and quick thinking.





How the Competition will Work:
1. Participants will be separated into 3 teams. 
2. Each team will be given the 3 secret ingredients (these will be the same for each team)
3. Each team will then have 1 hour to complete an appetizer, a main dish, AND a dessert using the 3 ingredients. (You do not have to use all three for each dish, but you have to use each ingredient at least once.)
  •  Teams will have access to a "Pantry" with other foods they can use to make their dishes.
  • Teams will also have access to a microwave and a George Foreman Grill at the Heating Table (Teams will take turns using the Heating Table)
  • No food items will HAVE to be cooked. (There will be no eggs, no raw meat, no cake batter. It can all be eaten cold.)
4. When a team is finished, they clean up their area and wait for the other teams to be finished.
5. When all teams are finished they must present their dishes to the judges. (Just tell them what it is, how you used the ingredients)
6. Judging will be based on Creativity, Adherence to the Rules, Taste, and Display/Plating. Winning team will receive the Grand Prize of up to $3 off their fines and first dibs on door prizes. Judges will be adults.
