It's Thanksgiving, and class is in session! Four beloved teachers get the chance to compete for the title of Chopped Champion as they share their love of cooking and their heartfelt stories of educating America's children. Digging into the first Turkey Day basket, the teachers find something fried and something shaped like a pumpkin. In the entree round, a thematic loaf of bread seems suitable to gobble, gobble up just as it is, but the teachers must find a creative use for it. In the final round, will a spectacular ingredient inspire the teachers to end the meal with over-the-top desserts?
