The Riverview School District Food Services Department is looking to find the best elementary school and secondary school junior chefs in our valley! Riverview School District is participating in the 2023 Junior Chef Competition, in partnership with The Lunch Box.
Student chefs, competing in teams, will plan a kid-friendly menu item, which follows USDA meal guidelines and meets the district's per-meal food cost criteria. The winning recipe will be featured on the 2023-2024 Riverview School District menu and the school with the winning team will be awarded kitchen tools and aprons as prizes.
The Elementary competition will be held at Cedarcrest High School on May 23, 2023, at 5:30 p.m. The Secondary competition (Middle School/High School) will be held at Cedarcrest High School on May 24, 2023, also at 5:30 p.m.
