What’s in Your Ultimate Chopped Basket?
by FN Dish Editor in Shows, January 21st, 2013
Three rounds, three different baskets and 12 out-of-this-world ingredients. Whether it’s Chopped Champions, All-Stars or regular-season episodes, that’s a lot of combinations to come up with.
So we’re asking this question: What would be included in your ultimate Chopped basket? Not something you’d want to receive, but something you’d give to a fellow competitor. Would there be two proteins? All sweets? Would you include one or two ingredients they’ve probably never heard of? It can be argued that the simplest ingredients like eggs, chicken, pasta and rice are sometimes the hardest.
Tell us what you’d choose in the comments below.

cat,
both dragonfruit and kefir were both used. I watch tthe show constantly and am an ardent fan.
I'd say, try a Vegetarian Challenge. While animal products such as milk and eggs are allowed, there is no meat. No meat whatsoever
Appetizer: Fruit Punch, Corn Bread Stuffing, White Pearl Onions, and Broccoli.
Entree: Rice Pudding, Fruit Cocktail, Vegiburger Patties, Turnip Greens
Dessert: Persimmons, Sunflower seeds (with shell on), Firm Tofu, Greek Yogurt
Great Idea
I just read "How to eat Fried Worms" and I think THAT would be a good idea for a show.
Maybe for the appatizer, they have to use maggots.
The Entree they have to use earthworms.
The Dessert they have to use mealworms.
I found out that all of these insects are edible and are grown as a food source.
