Five high school students from Chicago will bring a healthy school lunch they created to Congress. The students from Tilden Career Community High School are part of the Healthy Schools Campaign’s effort to secure more money for better food in school meals. The lunch they’re making Tuesday on Capitol Hill is the winning creation in last fall’s Cooking up Change contest, which challenged students to invent nutritious school meals. Their winning creation: chicken and vegetable jambalaya, jalapeno cornbread and a tomato-cucumber salad. The students are Jakaia Franklin, Lashonda Livingston, Aljibri Reed, Cari Smith and Henry Walton Jr. Copyright 2010 The Associated Press.
