A great contest dedicated to creating healthy school lunch recipes that kids will love to eat!

Let’s Move is a campaign created by First Lady Michelle Obama. Her goal is simple, to challenge the epidemic of childhood obesity through a comprehensive approach that will supply families and communities with the tools needed to get kids to be more active and eat healthy.

In an effort to help spread the word, the Let’s Move team and the USDA have come together to create a Contest to encourage schools to come together to create healthy school meals.

Let’s Move!, in association with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), is challenging school nutrition professionals, chefs, students, parents and interested community members to create tasty, healthy, exciting new recipes for inclusion on school lunch menus across the country.

Participants will form teams, develop, document, and prepare at least one healthy recipe in one of three categories (Whole Grains, Dark Green and Orange vegetables, or Dry Beans and Peas). Their creations will be served in the school’s cafeteria, and rated by students. Fifteen semi-finalist teams will have their recipe evaluated by our judging panel during events held at their school, and the top three teams will compete in a national cook-off to determine the grand prize winner! Semi-finalists’ recipes will also be posted for online voting by the public to determine a Popular Choice Winner. Winning teams will be invited to prepare their nutrition-packed meals alongside White House chefs.

Contest offers $12,000 in prizes and has a submission deadline of December 30, 2010.
