CHOPPED

We watch the food network a lot at our house, and one of the shows we love is Chopped!
Well, Morgan has been asking if she could do a" chopped challenge", so last night that's
just what we did!

She was given a basket with 4 random ingredients in it, and she then had 20 minutes to
"wow" the judges ( aka: Me, David & McKinley).

Her 4 ingredients were: cream corn, pineapples, chicken breast & buttermilk biscuits.


She prepared the biscuits and added the cream corn & some cheese, she "pipped"
them into the mini muffin pan( cause obviously, that is what a real chopped competitor would do).

She then made some sort of pineapple sauce, just to garnish the plate with.

Nope, it isn't as thick as  she would like it to be so, let's grab some cornstarch


Plating the food for the judges :)Love that she didn't bother to wash off the cornstarch. Ha!

and the final product looks like this::::


What a fun night we had, and I must say we just might do it again! It actually wasn't bad
at all,. McKinley ate most of the chicken, and her little corn muffins were mighty tastie!
So the next time your kids are bored, just have a "Chopped Challenge"



On another note, I will hopefully get word by the end of this week or first of next week that our
Dossier has made it to our Adoption Agency. Once that happens, they mail it to China!!! Chinese
new year starts next week, so that is going to push us back a week, but we should still get a login date hopefully by the first week in Feb.  We still appreciate your prayers as we go this this process.

Blessings,
Melissa
