queens of cuisine

both of the girls and some of their friends from 4H found out about a cooking contest that is similar to iron chef, but designed for 4H kids.  so, the girls formed a team called "queens of cuisine" and decided to enter the district contest.  for the contest, the kids have no idea what they are going to prepare nor what the ingredients are.  when they arrive at their designated table, they open their bag of groceries and have to prepare a dish using each ingredient in the bag.  they have 40 minutes to prepare the dish, figure the cost per serving, and tell about the nutritional ingredients, food safety and possible dietary substitutions.
i am pleased to announce that the queens of cuisine won their district competition and are proceeding to regionals after making a cous cous chicken salad.  bon apetit!
