Tonight we played one of our favorite games: Iron Chef and our secret ingredient was Rice!
We ended up with three teams! I was super impressed with my oldest son's ability to work with his little brother (age 10) and sister (age7) as he listened to each of their suggestions and composed a dish with the help of both siblings and no complaining. He was a great leader as he kept the dish moving and they all worked together as a team. I also want to note that my 7 year old daughter made homemade tortillas for the first time and did a great job.
On the other team I had two teen age kids who both came up with interesting individual dishes.
However the winner was a surprise third team that arose because of need. My six year old son felt left out and needed a team so I sat down and listened to his ideas of what he wanted to cook. He was insistent on eggs. Additionally he wanted to incorporate corn. So he ended up making an omelet that had rice, corn and salsa in it. It was delicious and he won the competition. Congratulations Seth!!!!
