Join the GGB Nutrition Challenge!

Spring Challenge: Peanut Butter Madness (anything healthy made with natural pb!)

Deadline: April 1st

Prize: Something FAB!!! Trust, me you’ll be excited! Details to come!

Alright Green Grapes Blog (GGB) readers—it’s time to up the health ante! We talk about leading a more healthifying lifestyle here at GGB, but as your momma told you, actions speak louder than words. It’s time to join the GGB Nutrition Challenge!

What’s the GGB Nutrition Challenge?

Each season, GGB invites you to send healthy recipes based on the season’s Challenge, complete with a list of ingredients and step-by-step preparation directions. Each recipe MUST be accompanied by a single photograph of the fully prepared item (check out an example from the Food Network and use the form at the end of the page as a guide). If you know your recipe’s nutrition information, please send that as well.

There’s NO LIMIT for how many times you “GGB Challenge yourself,” and you can submit as many times as you want until the deadline of each Challenge, when 3 finalists will be chosen based on their recipe’s healthfulness, tastiness, and relavence to the  Challenge. If you become a finalist, your recipe will be posted on the “Finalists” page, where GGB readers will have one week to vote for the winning recipe.

If you win a Challenge, you will be notified via email and have your recipe permanently featured on the “Stars” page (along with your blog or website name, if you’ve got one). Each winner will also receive a prize!!!

Lastly, I must say, this is the blog of a gal who mainly cooks with a skillet and only a skillet–so don’t feel as if your recipe must be Top Chef style–it can be, but doesn’t have to be–just make sure it’s GGB healthifying style!!!

Did You Say Prize!?!?

Yes—I did! Prizes will vary each Challenge, but will always be something healthifying.
