Iron Chef 2009 Update

On Saturday, December 19th we held our second annual Iron Chef Competition. The goal was to create a holiday treat using the secret ingredient within the amount of time given. The secret ingredient this year was CREAM CHEESE. Students opened the secret ingredient at 10 am and had until 1 pm to make, decorate and transport their creation to St. Francis!

We had a total of 7 teams—4 middle school and 3 high school teams with a total of about 20 kids participating. The kids enjoyed lunch while each team took a turn presenting their dishes to the judges.

Holy Spirit teams swept the competition winning both the middle school and the high school divisions and taking home the GOLDEN SPATULA. The winning creations were a cheesecake at the high school level and some cream cheese “snowballs” for the middle school level. The scoring was close and St. Francis teams gave them a run for their money!

Thanks to all students, parents and host kitchens who made this event a success!
