<human>: Greetings /r/cooking! I need your help! I am a high school Spanish teacher whose first passion is education and the next, cooking! For a recent lesson, I utilized our school kitchen classroom (originally designed for Home Ec, etc but is rarely used now) to do a hispanic food cooking demonstration for my class. After the great feedback and response I got from my students, I am looking to start a cooking club at our school.

I pitched the idea to my principal and I've been given the green light. Here's the rub: anytime a new club is started, it helps to have a detailed gameplan for the upcoming year. So far, I want to have a set list of "meals" to be prepared once a month for which students could sign up. The meals need to be able to be cooked within 1-1.5 hours and relatively simple to prepare. You can assume these students know NOTHING about cooking. I am especially interested in ideas that would require my students to use basic cooking techniques (cutting, sauteing, baking, steaming, etc.)

I also have limited resources when it comes to the kitchen. There are 3 ovens, each with corresponding 4 top range split into pairs. Because of this, for most of the meals I envision 3 parts: meat, starch, vegetable, one in the oven and the other two on the pair of ranges.

So I am here for ideas and input on simple dishes that students would not only be interested in preparing but eating as well. I will follow the post to answer any questions y'all might have. Thanks in advance!
