GOOD Magazine Contest to Create a Healthy School Lunch

 From http://www.good.is/post/contest-make-a-healthy-delicious-student-lunch/

Good Magazine is obsessed with food. Specifically, what kids are given to eat every day at school for lunch. They thought a contest was in order, complete with a $50 gift card from Whole Foods Market for the five best entries. 

The rules are below:

the OBJECTIVE

Create an ideal student lunch, photograph it and submit it.

the ASSIGNMENT

Since the federal government reimburses up to $2.68 per lunch per day
(and keeping in mind that they buy in bulk, and the ingredients they
buy aren't always of the highest quality), we have made our price limit
roughly double that, assuming that if a school were to actually buy
these things in large enough quantities they would total out at well
under $5 per meal.

the REQUIREMENTS

—Ingredients must total $5 bucks or less.

—It must be a balanced meal and contain a protein, a fruit/vegetable, a grain and a dairy or dairy substitute.

—It needn't include meat, but it can; organic and sustainable ingredients are encouraged.

—It must be something that a kid might actually eat.

—Include a menu and a brief description about why your lunch is great.

—Be creative!

the SUBMISSION

Send your lunch to projects(at)goodinc(dot)com. Every submission will
be posted, and the five best will be gifted a $50 card from Whole Foods
Market. Full contest rules and regulations can be found here. Deadline: February 28th at Midnight PST.

Happy lunch-making!
