Four-hour preschool television channel Sprout is celebrating Food Week with a special appearance by Iron Chef Jose Garces.
Chef Garces will be featured in a “Sunshine Chef” cook-off against Chica the Chicken on Tuesday, August 23 during Sprout’s The Sunny Side Up Show, which airs from 9 am to noon.
Filming for the kitchen showdown took place at JG Domestic, one of Garces’ newest restaurants. The Sunny Side Up Show host Liz served as Iron Chef chairman and moderator for the event. During the showdown, Chef Chica and Chef Garces worked with the secret ingredient – cheese – and created fun, delicious recipes.
After the cook-off, winner Chef Garces, who had a little help from some familiar judges (his daughter Olivia, 9 and son Andres, 4) received The Good Egg Award in recognition of him cooking delicious food and displaying good sportsmanship. Chica’s fun, preschool-friendly dish that parents and their preschoolers can easily recreate at home will also be available at www.SproutOnline.com.
Additionally, The Sunny Side Up Show will be celebrating Food Week all week long with cooking inspired crafts, games, activities and more. Want to spark the foodie in your kids? Tune in!
