Looking Ahead....

While I work feverishly to finish this first contest, I need to start tracking other contests that are coming up. So far, I have come across these:

From Taste of Home I see these -

http://www.tasteofhome.com/Contests/Recipe-Contests/For-the-Birds/ - this one is due by the 15th of this month and involves the use of turkey or chicken, must be healthy, and offers a $600 prize.
http://www.tasteofhome.com/Contests/Recipe-Contests/Go-Nuts/ - for this one you have to use nuts, and get it in by February 1st, for a grand prize of $500.
http://www.tasteofhome.com/Contests/Recipe-Contests/Best-Loved/ - their biggie, with four categories and a grand prize of $25,000. Entries are due by March 1st. Competition will be fierce for this one.

Better Homes and Gardens has one coming up -

http://www.bhg.com/recipes/win-money/ - two categories (Crave-worthy vegetable suppers and frozen desserts) can yield a $400 prize and entry in the annual grand prize contest worth $10,000. Entries have to be in online by the 24th of January.

Texas Rio Star Grapefruit has the Fit, Fun and Fabulous Recipe Challenge -

http://www.riostarchallenge.com/ - the main ingredient is a given...lol. Entries are due by 15 February and they are given out a grand prize valued at $5,000.

These should keep me busy for the next couple of months. There's probably more out there. I haven't looked to deeply yet.
