The nutrition team at Austin Independent School District (AISD) in Austin, Texas, held a student cooking competition to find a new burrito recipe to add to its menu, KXAN reports.

Six teams of middle school students each came up with their own burrito recipe for the district’s “Diced and Sliced” cooking competition at Austin Community College. Each burrito was judged on taste, appearance, creativity and presentation.

The winning dish, the “burrito verde,” will be served on AISD lunch menus this upcoming school year.
