Do any of you watch this reality series?

Last night's competition required the chef's to come up with a nutritious entree for a family of 4 for $10. It also had to be something easy for families to make and something that kids could help with. Anyway the chefs all had a "tween" aged child to help as a sous chef and they all had a blast. Some did better than others with the money. Personally I think all of you could have done this challenge easily and had money left over!
