ep. 7. common threads. ((works with kids))

Quickfire Challenge: Each chef is to create an entree in only 15 minutes, using Uncle Ben's Rice as a primary ingredient. The winner receives immunity in the next challenge. why have them use uncle bens? except for cheap product placement and advertisment
The Best: Antonia, Dale, Richard
The Worst: Lisa, Mark, Stephanie
WINNER: Antonia (Rice Salad with Skirt Steak, Arugula, Cherry Tomatoes)
Elimination Challenge: The contestants are told to make a healthy, simple and flavorful meal for a family of four, using only $10. Meal preparation would take place at the Washburn Culinary Institute. There, each chef is then paired with a child from the Common Threads program who will participate in preparing the dish and will be responsible for explaining the dish to fellow children from the program during the tasting. those kids were soo cute! spike's kid sliced himself with a peeler in like the first two minutes. some were real helpful, some of the chefs didn't really seem to want the help from their kid. andrew is funny with children, yet he shouldn't be allowed to be around them.. it may be unsafe.
WINNER: Antonia (Stir Fry Whole Wheat Noodles with Bok Choy, Chicken, Edamame & Cilantro) she cried about missing her daughter like this whole episode,you knew she was gonna win. she told her daughter some dumm joke over the phone. girl didn't really seem to get it though, maybe it was too advanced.
ELIMINATED: Mark (Roasted Vegetables in Red Curry with Cucumber Salad & Garlic Naan) he didn't really listen to what kids like to eat, he just made what mark wanted to make, and that was it. i liked him, but he wasn't the best chef.
