Can you imagine 40 kids cooking dinner for 60 people in 3 hours - it could be a basis for a cooking show or better yet 'Restaurant impossible' or a completely new show 'Chef's Nightmares'. Every month the after school cooking class puts together an amazing dinner for the Parent Teacher Group Meeting. This month was sponsored by a donation from the Safeway Foundation.

The cassoulet was remarkably good - it is pointless to try to explain how we made it, cooking this much food with so many students is not at all precise. I really could not tell you exactly how many onions or carrots we used or the spices that a student added but this is the recipe that I based it on. We added roast tomatoes, sauted mushrooms, peas and anise and also cooked it in the oven for awhile, maybe 45 minutes but other wise it is pretty similar.
