Jump Start Grab & Go Breakfast Challenge
25 local culinary students from 8 secondary schools on Oahu and Neighbor Islands competed in the inaugural Jump Start Grab & Go Breakfast Challenge. They developed and presented their own recipes for grab-and-go school breakfast items. Each entry had to be nutritious, tasty, portable, and simple to freeze and reheat in school cafeterias. They also got bonus points for using local ingredients!
Contest judges for the Jump Start Grab & Go Breakfast Challenge included First Lady Dawn Amano-Ige, La Tour Bakehouse Chef Chris Okuhara, Honolulu Family Magazine Managing Editor Cathy Cruz-George and YMCA Youth Governor Krysta Reese.
