2023 Chopped Food Challenge Day 1
Campers are ready to cook this week!
Chopped Food Challenge!
This week camp is based around the show Chopped! Each group will get ingredients to create a dish they will serve at the end of the week. The dishes will be judged by our very own staff. This morning to kick off the first day campers tie dyed shirts they will get to wear on Friday and go on a fun wagon ride!
STEAM: Chopped food recipe planning
Campers came together in their groups to come up with a fun dish to make. They first brainstormed a few ideas and voted on their favorite ones. Once they narrowed it down to one, a shopping list was made. Campers for sure got creative with their recipes.
Garden Kitchen: red cabbage slaw and hummus
Another coleslaw recipe this week! Every camper was willing to try it even if it did seem intimidating. Many of them liked it and even said what they'd add to it at home. Homemade hummus is the best! Pepper groups learned how to make it and it was a very simple recipe. They will be getting a recipe book on Friday!
Craft: Clay Food
Food & crafts?!! The best week EVER! Everyone let their imaginations sore with creating one of their favorite foods from clay. Even EDU Leaders and Stewards/SIT's got to make their own. Once the clay is dry, they will begin painting tomorrow!
Taste Buds
With a cooler filled with fruit, a few blindfolds campers were put to the test to see if they could tell the difference between a lemon/lime and a green/red apple. They even tried mango, kiwi and a not so fan favorite radishes.
