Blogger Secret Ingredient: Week 55!

Blogger Secret Ingredient, Week 55!

I’ve loved participating in BSI the past two weeks, so I am pumped to be hosting this week’s competition!  For those who don’t know (or just need a refresher!), here’s how it works:

Each week, a new host picks an ingredient and anyone (food blogger or not) can submit a recipe.

The rules:

1. The host picks an ingredient, preferably one that is in season, readily available, and not too expensive;
2. The host links back to all the other previous weekly hosts;
3. Participants create a unique recipe using the BSI and e-mail the host with their recipes.
4. You do not have to have a food blog to participate, and you do not have to submit a photograph (although it is preferred).
5. if you don’t have a blog, you can submit your recipe to the host, and she will post your recipe for you on her blog.
6. The host reviews the recipe submissions by Sunday night of each week;
7. The hosts pick a recipe that is her favorite; and
8. The host post the winner Monday morning and sends the winner a token prize of her choosing.

Be sure to check out the history of BSI as it is quite extensive!
