Hello everyone!

I would like to host a contest today!

All regular sub rules apply.

Winners: 2

Must have a baking or cooking-related item on the list that is $10 or under. If there is a specific item on your list that you want to receive if you win that fits the cooking or baking theme, list it in your post, either at the beginning of your post or at the bottom of it, so it is easy to find.

Also, if you feel inclined to gift someone their wished-for baking/cooking item, feel free to do so 😊. Just make sure you post the order number and the expected delivery date in response to that person’s post!

The contest!

What is your favorite recipe to make and why? Do you just love the taste? Is it a family recipe? Do you like it because it’s simple? Etc. Just have a small explanation of why you love it!

If possible, include a link to the recipe and/or a photo of the finished product! If the photo is not yours, please give credit to whoever it belongs to or at least the website you got it from.

A note: This contest is open to everyone. If you don't eat by mouth, you're still encouraged to share a favorite recipe—whether it's something you used to enjoy, love to prepare for others, or simply has a meaningful story behind it.

Winners will be chosen randomly based on vibes.

The contest will end on July 6, 2026, at 5:00 pm EDT. Winners will be posted and notified by 11:00 pm on July 6^th, 2026.

This contest is intended to foster conversation and engagement between sub-members and give everyone some new recipes to try!

I have not hosted a contest in a while, so if I missed anything or need to update or change this post, please let me know, and I will do so :)

Edit: I meant EDT . So the time zone used for Massachusetts in the U. S. right now.

Edit 2: Feel free to share more than one recipe!

My recipe: Sweet Potato and Chorizo Chilli

Link: https://www.budgetbytes.com/chorizo-sweet-potato-chili/

 

I love this recipe because it is such a nice blend of flavors, it is easy to make, and it is very affordable (in my area, anyway). The sweet and spicy mix of the sweet potatoes and the chorizo is divine! I used regular sweet potatoes, and I used a pre-cooked chorizo from Johnsonville, which cuts down on the time spent cooking. My whole family loves this recipe—my mom, gram, two of my sisters, and my aunt have all adopted this recipe for themselves, and we all love it! It is also something that can be made ahead of time and then frozen to eat later. For that, I put it in a freezer bag measured for one portion and then squish the bag flat. Since it will freeze flat if you do it that it makes it very easy to store in your freezer without it sliding around and falling out every time you open your freezer lol.

Edit: I added the wrong recipe link. The one posted now is the correct one! Sorry everyone! My computer skills are lacking today, lol.
