If you are the parent or guardian of a child ages 9–13 and the two of you love to cook great beef dishes for your family, the Kids in the Kitchen Beef Cookoff is the contest for you. Teams (each consisting of one child between the ages of 9–13 and the child’s parent or legal guardian) should submit a fun beef recipe that promotes nutritional balance and has an all-family appeal. Recipes should include no more than eight ingredients (not including water and plain salt and pepper), and be prepared and cooked in 30 minutes or less (not including marinating time). Types of recipes may include, but are not limited to, main dish lunches or dinners, one-dish meals, sandwiches or wraps, pasta and grain-based dishes or main dish salads.
