CHICAGO (WLS) -- There's a new program that plans to offer more nutritional and flavorful dishes into Chicago Public School cafeterias.

CPS' Chef Council was just launched and will feature a recipe from a different famous, Chicago chef each month. First up in February is Josephine "Mother" Wade's chicken stew.

Mother Wade, along with Chef David Murphy from Aramark and Tarrah DeClemente, a registered dietician with CPS, visited ABC7 to talk about the new program.
