Family event

Two teams of children compete against the clock and in front of the audience to create the best healthy dish they can from mystery ingredients. Using two mini-mobile kitchens and all the utensils necessary to cook with, the teams work with Helen Nathan, author of the Flossie Crums books, and Laurane Marchive, editor of the Green Teen Cookbook, to create a healthy dish in under 15 minutes. Audience, get ready for on-the-spot nutritional questions and food tasting. Are you eating healthily?

This session is provided by festival partner Chartwells, the leading provider of contract catering and support services to the education sector in the UK. Its aim is to engage both the participants and the audience, and to get them excited about cooking and eating healthy, well balanced meals.
