Jennifer Jasinski will be cooking at your house tomorrow morning — but you may need to eat breakfast out afterwards. That’s because Jasinski, chef/owner of Rioja and Bistro Vendome, has accepted the “Chef on a Shoestring” challenge issued by CBS’s The Early Show, and will be preparing a $30, three-course summer picnic for four — live.

Tune in to CBS4 at 6:30 a.m. (MST) Saturday, July 26, to see Jen in action. Her menu:

Shrimp and Spicy Sausage Skewers with Corn-Orzo Salad Madras Curry Scented Garbanzo Dip Lemon Anise Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich
