A smile always makes the day go by bisQUICKer



The Family Foods students finally were able to choose their own recipes! Following a lesson on functions of ingredients (i.e. Flour provides structure, eggs bind ingredients together and add color, etc) and convenience foods (foods that take steps out of a recipe), students used Bisquick's website to find a recipe to prepare in class.  Check out their process and winners below!

Winner, winner, potato dinner!







As Culinary Arts 1 students explore the world spices available to them, they were challenged with having an impromptu lab of each group receiving 3 potatoes and the rest of the recipe was completely up to them with access to any spices or ingredients found in our kitchen.
