August 7th, 2010

It was the much anticipated Top Chef party at Julie and Ben’s.  There were 12 of us ready for the fun.  First round was a 5 ingredient only challenge and the second round was Mexican.  Each round had 30 minutes (and a little wiggle room).  Ben and Kevin were the victorious team round 1 with a rice and goat cheese dish topped with grilled onions, tomatoes, and peppers.  Ryan and Dan were the round 2 winners with a chorizo quesadilla.  Jackie and I were a team in round one and we made a chicken and gouda pizza topped with peaches.  I know, it sounds random, but it kinda sorta worked.  We picked last for our ingredients and had to go with plan C.  It was a really fun night with lots of great food.  Here’s some pictures of the people and the food they made.
