(Chicago Tribune) — Dozens of white-clad food missionaries fanned out across the city Monday to preach the gospel of healthy food.
Chef Melissa Graham read “Little Pea” followed by a veggie tasting at McAuliffe Elementary in Humboldt Park. Chef TJ Harville taught grade-schoolers how to make pizza from scratch at Nettelhorst in Lakeview. And chef Melvin Carter wowed kids with his black-eyed pea and turkey chili at Attucks Elementary in Bronzeville.
They were just three of the 67 Chicago area chefs who will work with local schools as part of first lady Michelle Obama’s national Chefs Move to Schools program.
