The battle to become The Next Food Network Star continues! Debbie Lee, a restaurant consultant from West Hollywood, CA, explains how food can bring people together. "It's definitely a pivotal time to teach people," she says, "to expose their minds, their palate and their hearts to others. And you do that on a plate -- I think it's the easiest way to go." Her partner for today's challenge is Katie Cavuto from Philadelphia, PA, a dietitian and personal chef. "My style of cooking really revolves around simplicities," Katie states, "with a focus on organics, healthy food and freshness."

Debbie and Katie are assigned the kid-friendly fare of chicken nuggets and mac & cheese. Watch the video above to see them turn that meal into Soy Dijon Chicken Tenders with Baked Shrimp Mac & Cheese.
