“It was not only fun to make the recipe, but it also taught us how to make a well-balanced and delicious snack.” – Christine, Alexandra, and Shannon

Christine Kim, Alexandra Scarangella and Shannon Herbert of Charles DeWolf Middle School, Old Tappan, NJ., entered as a group. Mrs. Mishler, their LEAP teacher for the gifted and talented, allowed the girls to use the recipe contest as a class project. Even though the recipe preparation was done at home, the girls explored recipe ideas, delved into nutrition topics, and researched food photography and writing in class. Their tasty "Fruity Snowballs" snack recipe could serve as a healthy dessert too.
