CB Spotlight: Week of 8/26/2013

Iron Chef Microwave Edition
Hosted by: Stanford Hall RAs
CB Category: Veritas
Objective: Teach residents to cook microwave masterpieces

Sneha Kallukaran, one of the Stanford RAs who organized this CB, said
"Susan Formosa and I put together the Iron Chef CB.  We found most of the recipes on Pinterest.  We did three separate microwavable dishes:
  • pancakes, which we prepared in a bowl
  • chocolate cake, which we did in a mug, and
  • quesadillas with cheese and chicken filling.
Before the actual CB, some of the RAs went to Giant to get the ingredients which were pretty simple (pancake mix, flour, cocoa powder, wraps, and cheese).  Then we brought down five separate microwaves to the lounge, printed out recipes, and allowed the residents to choose what they wanted to make.  We did a tutorial of the three different dishes first, and allowed the residents to try try their creations after.  We had a good amount of residents come in and out and everyone loved the free samples!"
