Chopped! Nelson Style

Since my family loves doing Chopped so much, the Goober and I thought his family would have just as much fun. And now that we have a big enough kitchen we could actually host it. 

For the Appetizer round, our mandatory ingredients were:
Broccoli Leaves and Stems
Granny Smith Apples
Summer Sausage


Team KK (Kade and Karen) with their delicious appetizer.


And Team SAD (Sam, Abby, and Dad) with their appetizer named Beardy the Weirdy.
After much deliberation on the judges part, Team KK was dubbed winner of the appetizer round.

The Entree rounds mandatory ingredients included:
Ramen Noodles
Chicken Breasts
Leeks
Something from the Garden


Team KK made a delicious Stir Fry


And Team SAD did as well!

Both dishes were so good! The Goober and I had a hard time deciding who was better. We finally choose Team KK due to their presentation choices.

For Dessert round, the mandatory ingredients were:
Cereal
Mexican Chocolate
Condensed Milk
Tamarind


Team SAD choose to make some yummy sauce toppings for ice cream.


And Team KK went with some no-bake cookies.

This round was a little easier to choose a winner, in my opinion the peanut butter and cinnamon in the no-bake cookies did not blend very well together, so the victory for this round went to Team SAD.

Which made our overall winner Team KK. But in all honesty, I think we as judges won. Everything was edible and mostly everything tasted delicious!!! I hope the contestants had just as much fun as the judges!
