🥑 What’s the plan?
We’ll all be trying out their 2025 Twin Cities Vegan Chef Challenge dish, Vegan Pesto Rosso. It's cavatappi pasta, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion sautéed and deglazed with white wine and lemon juice, with basil pesto, and topped with a vegan chicken breast.
We’ll also take a small action together at the event to help animals, signing and/or calling to support a plant-based school meal option! After we dine, everyone gets to rate the dish at caa.mn/tcvcc.
👨🏾🍳 What is the Twin Cities Vegan Chef Challenge?
Each August, restaurants around the Twin Cities add a new vegan dish to the menu. Diners visit restaurants and rate each dish they try.
We’ll crown the winning chef at a ceremony at 3:30pm on September 21, 2025, at Twin Cities Veg Fest in St. Paul’s Harriet Island Park.
