question was that they got to select a food item to use in their dishes. \u00a0 The categories were protein, fruits, vegetables and dairy. \u00a0 The secret ingredients that all teams had to use were:

teamwork and a lot of laughter and joy in the cooking. \u00a0 Everyone was named best in some category, and the participants got a chef&#8217;s knife and cookbook. \u00a0 Us judges had fun trying
