Taste of Home Competition Announces Winning Recipe

Taste of Home winner蹤獲扦���s Dining Services recently hosted its annual Taste of Home competition and announced the winning dish: a turkey chili recipe submitted by Debbie McKinney, a 蹤獲扦 parent.

The Taste of Home competition encourages students��� family members to submit recipes of their student���s favorite home-cooked meals for the chance to have it served on campus.

According to the Taste of Home webpage, ���蹤獲扦 believes parents and grandparents are the best resource available to make our local menu more like home.���

McKinney surprised her daughter, Dana McKinney, a first-year photo illustration major, with the contest win.

���I honestly didn���t know that my mom entered the contest,��� Dana McKinney says. ���She didn���t tell me, so I was really excited when she did explain what it was, and I was surprised.���

McKinney���s chili was served at Eastway Caf矇 on Sept. 16 and in the Division of Student Affairs loge for 蹤獲扦���s football game on Sept. 17.

���I love her turkey chili, like all my friends and family do,��� Dana McKinney says. ���It���s her thing, and I was really excited and happy for her. She���s a really good cook.���

Students can submit recipes year-round through the Taste of Home submission form.
