Lords Kitchen Impossible Challenge

Healthy Eating Week was kicked off with the Lords Kitchen class taking on the Impossible challenge. Last week the class was split into teams and given the challenge to design a dish using impossible meat to serve to staff at lunch today, with the aim of making them want to convert to the plant based alternative rather than minced  beef. The Boys team went for Spicy Koftas and salad and the girls Quesadillas,, the staff tried both and had to vote for which they would like again in the future. It was very close between the two dishes, but the quesadillas just pipped it by one vote. The huge take away from the challenge was how many people said “I can’t believe it is not meat” and “I will definitely be choosing Impossible in the future.”
