United Kid Chefs of America!
The hard way to get to the White House? Win a presidential election.
The easier way? Create a healthy and tasty lunch recipe and submit it in First Lady Michelle Obama’s Healthy Lunchtime Challenge!
If they choose your creation, you win a trip to the White House for a “state dinner” to meet Mrs. Obama … and maybe even the President!
One young chef’s recipe from each state will be chosen (that’s 50+ kids!). The contest is open to U.S. kids ages 8-12.
The deadline to enter is April 5th (that’s pretty soon).
There are a few more rules and criteria, of course, so make sure you and your adult check those out through Mrs. Obama’s Let’s Move! website . Or through Epicurious .
Oh, and hint: follow the MyPlate guidelines, it’ll increase your chances of winning … and give you better health.
