Ideal Bite

This one time…would you swap a standard restaurant dinner for one that'll support kids' health? March to the Cooking Up Change benefit at Salvage One, where teams of five CPS students (all in high school cooking classes) compete to make a tasty and nutritious lunch using local produce like corn and antioxidant-rich blueberries. After you grub on apps and vino, sample the entry dishes (last year's winner was Carrot Quesadillas stuffed with peppers) and vote for your fave. Schools nationwide'll serve up the winning team's meal - instrumental in making cafeterias healthier.
