The Disney film "Ratatouille" has an important message in the movie that everyone can cook, and this tenant used when officials created a cast member only Be Our Chefs event.

The event was a part of National Nutrition Month in March to educate cast members on the importance of health and wellness.

As cast members started to file into the "Beauty and the Beast" theater at Disney's Hollywood Studios, they were excited to see their coworkers in the competition.

There was raucous applause for both teams as they took to the stage.





Each team was comprised of a Disney chef and cast member, as they took on the most important meal of the day breakfast.

"This is our very first be our chef healthy cooking competition," Disney cast member Brandon Peters said.

The countdown 25-minute countdown clock began, and the teams got cooking.



Team Jose began their plan of attack, making a classic three-course breakfast.



"We made a veggie omelet that has onions, peppers, spinach, and mushrooms. We made turkey bacon and sweet potato pancakes and banana, blueberry and raspberry smoothie," Jose Torro said.

This strategy proved that healthy doesn't have to mean boring.

They snuck in a secret ingredient to their berry smoothies. The use of almond milk that has fewer calories and can help those who are lactose intolerant.

The cooking competition is something that Torro had never done before, but he was determined to take home the grand prize---a golden chef's hat---with his teammate chef, Barry.

The key to his success was the practice that he put in before the competition. For Torres, having the perfect omelet flip was perfected days before in his kitchen at home.

"For the last four days, I just made omelet breakfast everyday, and I practiced at home," Torres said.

As the competition was well underway, a special twist was thrown into their breakfast preparation.

"I think we should add a secret ingredient for them to start. I think that they should add some Tuscan kale," one host said.

Both teams had to think on their feet figure how to add in the ingredient.

"I am going to share some ideas with Chef Barry, and I really don't have an idea of how we are going to incorporate this," Torro said.

The team decided that the secret ingredient was best added to their smoothie and made sure that time did not run out before they plated their meal.

"Chef's hand's up to no more plating," the judges announced.

The clock ran out, and it was time for the judges to taste all of their hard work.

The judges savored each bite of the omelet, smoothie and sweet potato pancakes from Team Jose. They also ate frittata, smoothie and buckwheat pancakes from Team Slayman before reaching a decision.

Team Jose was declared the winner and had bragging rights for the rest of the semester.
