๐ด Cook with Us #2 ๐ Winners Announced!
The team at Cook with Us (@pandamama, @offoodandart and @chefsteve) would like to thank everyone that entered the contest this week. We appreciate the time and energy that you put into these wonderful posts. Your entries looked great and we loved how creative some of you got with the three ingredient theme. It was great to see more of you checking out the other entries, commenting and supporting each other. That is what the Cook with Us community is all about.
Before we get to the winners we would like to tease a new concept for Cook with Us that we are still working on, but we know that you will look forward to. The concept is called "The Winner's Circle" and it is basically a higher level of competition that will have its own SBD award each week. Each week the winner of the Cook With Us contest will advance to "The Winner's Circle" and compete against the winners from previous weeks. The contestants in "The Winner's Circle" and the general contest will both use the same theme each week. The idea is that we will send the winners each week to compete against each other and this will give some other contestants a chance to win in the general contest. We will let you know soon when we will roll out this new addition to the competition and at that time we will explain how it works in greater detail. OK, now let's get to the winners!
Pearl Balls by @loveself
Congratulations @loveself! You are the winner this week. You will receive 5 SBD as your reward. We felt that your three ingredient dish was greater than the sum of its parts. The dish offers great taste and texture and your photos capture its simple beauty. We liked your story about how your mother taught this recipe to you and your description about how the juicy meatball works so well with the chewy sticky rice coating.
In Second place is...
Vegan Mango Lassi by @mountainjewel
Well done @mountainjewel! You are the second place winner this week. You will receive 3 SBD as your reward. We were so impressed by your creative use of your three ingredients to produce a vegan lassi. We liked your description about how you eliminated the sugar and milk to make your more healthful version. We also liked the information about the hemp hearts and all the nutritional information you included about all the ingredients.
In Third place is...
Tropical Chicken with Caramelized Pineapple by @deimus
Congratulations @deimus! You are the third place winner this week and you will receive 1 SBD as your reward. We felt that your dish had a great rich and balanced flavor. The dish is salty and sweet from the teriyaki and then gets a well needed punch of acid from the pineapple. The coconut adds another level of depth and complexity to the dish.
Honorable Mention
Thai Style omelette with shredded chicken and basil by @waybeyondpadthai
This week we are giving a shout out to @waybeyondpadthai for her delicious entry and also her incredible video! Your omelette looked so tasty with shredded poached chicken and Thai basil. What a great combination! Please click here to watch her video. It is such a fun video and it also shows you the method of how to make this classic Thai dish.
