Chef On Campus, Co-Op Living, Solar-Powered Chiles

There is no shortage of chicken tenders in the world. Here, it's good quality food. This is their home, and they deserve that.

Not that there's anything wrong with chicken tenders! It's just when Chef Jackie Howard makes them for the women of Alpha Xi Delta sorority, she makes them from scratch, using as many local ingredients as possible. Institutional cooking has never tasted so good!

From a sorority to a co-op, two women tell us about making food decisions as a group.

We visit Susan Welsand's chile pepper farm, which is powered by solar panels.

Then, kale salad for health and strawberry shortcake for fun with Chef Daniel Orr.
