Foods I Classes are wrapping up their food lab experience by making Panini sandwiches on our Panini grills. These are Italian sandwiches that are toasted on each side at the same time. After each lab the students fill out a lab report explaining what they made, prep terms they performed, what they learned from the lab, and what, if anything, would they change. During Food Labs students use their problem solving skills, time management, team player, and leadership skills. A great way to learn with hands-on lessons that you get to eat your homework!
