Hello folks! Get HYPED for this week’s edition of NUHOC Chopped!!!! Bring your appetites and your creativity, and get ready to whip up some meals in a backpacker’s kitchen. If you’d like to participate in this week’s cooking extravaganza, please bring a cooking utensil (spatula or spoon). If you have your own camping stove or pot PLEASE bring them as we will be cooking on Centennial with backpacking stoves and pots:) ALSO! Some ~secret~ ingredients will be provided but we highly encourage you to bring your own exciting, whacky ingredient to add to the communal cooking pantry to use in your dish to impress the panel of esteemed judges!

“Bring your pre-loved gear you don’t want anymore to the meeting tonight OR bring your body and desire for giving preowned gear a new life OR bring stickers to trade with other people to the meeting. If you can’t make it tonight but are looking for a new home for your gear or pre-loved stuff check out our gear exchange” (Wible 2024)
