As you know (if you follow this blog), I am one of 8 bloggers participating in the Back to School Meal Maker Challenge, sponsored by H-E-B and Con Agra.
Together with Food Network Celebrity Chef George Duran, we are all creating recipes (using family-favorite ingredients) that will help busy moms and dads prepare for the start of a new school year.
The Back to School Meal Maker Challenge
During the month of August, we are sharing our family-friendly recipes … recipes that take under 45 minutes to prepare and require 10 ingredients or less.
We are also sharing info on money-saving coupons and special “Combo Locos” (those money-saving meal deals every H-E-B shopper loves).
And … just to make things interesting, we bloggers are COMPETING against one another to be one of two cooks that will challenge one another in a cook-off at the end of the month (which will be hosted by Chef George Duran). Woo hoo.
