Cool New Website: Ingredient Challenge

Hi friends and family members! Just have to brag a little about how cool Monica's new website is! In case you don't know, Monica is Shane's cousin. I like to think she's my friend, too. ;) Anyway, Monica came up with this really cool idea for a new website and with her hubby Jon's help, has brought her idea to fruition for all of us to enjoy. Go Gibsons! I would encourage you all to go check it out, sign up, and begin posting recipes. Why? Because it's a really unique, totally awesome concept, and because you can win prizes! They are good prizes, too, like Williams-Sonoma gift cards... just for posting a recipe including the ingredient of the week! This week the ingredient is LIMES. Yum.

Here is a quote from Monica's website explaining the concept:
“What should I make for dinner?”

During my 2-year stint as a teacher in NYC, I rode the train to work most every day with a teacher friend of mine, Neil. Neil belonged, and still does, to a CSA (community supported agriculture) group. He told me that sometimes he would get a new vegetable/fruit that he didn’t quite know what to do with and that he enjoyed the challenge of cooking with something new.

Make a dish using the ingredient. Then take a picture of the dish and post both the picture and the recipe. Just by contributing you could win one of the weekly giveaways.

Every week there will be a new ingredient. Use this as an opportunity to challenge yourself!

Okay so it's called Ingredient Challenge. Just click on any of the three hyperlinks I have created in this post and you will be on your way to experiencing a fantastic new way to step up your culinary skills with superb inspiration! And spread the word!

Thanks,
Megan
