Oneonta 11 Year Old Wins Prestigious First Lady Healthy Recipe Contest

Julia Rissberger of Oneonta is no ordinary 11 year old.  She knows her way around the kitchen and can stiffen an eggwhite with the best of them.  She's so culinary minded that she is the New York State winner in the "Healthy Lunchtime Challenge" recipe contest from our own U.S. First Lady, Michelle Obama.

Listen in below as WZOZ's Leslie Ann interview Julia about this prestigious award.

Congratulations to Julia! Winners representing all U.S. states, four territories, and the District of Columbia will attend a Kids' “State Dinner” at the White House hosted by Mrs. Obama on July 10. The 55 aspiring young chefs and a parent or guardian will join the First Lady for a healthy lunch, featuring a selection of the winning recipes, followed by a visit to the White House Kitchen Garden.  What an amazing opportunity for these kids!
