Do you have a favourite recipe that brings back memories? One that makes you think of a certain time in your life or a special person? What about one that’s an absolute family keeper? It’s time to share it and the story behind it for a chance to win an incredibly tantalizing prize in our Kitchen Party! contest!
Send us your recipe (photo, list of ingredients and instructions), and tell us why you chose it. You have until February 28 at 11:59 p.m. (EDT) to enter the contest. If your recipe is selected, you’ll be among the finalists in the category of your choice:
- Young Chefs (17 years old and under)
- Kooky Cooks (18 years old and older)
- Family Table (family)
The public will then vote on the preselected recipes.
To get you inspired, here’s a favourite recipe from Patrick Chan, host of the Kitchen Party! contest:
“Mee goreng was one of the first recipes my wife and I cooked together. It’s an easy-to-make Southeast Asian dish with a fresh taste and lots of flavour. You can also get really creative with it because you can add different proteins. The egg noodles and the fresh vegetables remind me of my trips to Indonesia, where I surfed many years ago.”
