The winning picture recipes will be the ones that have the most creative likeness of me, Cilie! We have two age groups: 5-7 and 8-11!
Get creative with cookie cutters, fresh fruit, soft vegetables, lunch meats, to name just a few foods that pop into my mind. Keep the flavors in mind when you create your recipe. I mean, I'm not too sure I'd want to eat chocolate with a piece of broccoli. Oh, about broccoli... That reminds me! Do you remember the part in my story where my best friend Dessie and I tricked my brothers to fight over a piece of broccoli?
This is the tricky part! Just take a photo and upload it to your computer. We would like small image sizes, please. Save it with a pixel size of 72 pixels per inch. Then email it to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. . Just put the title, "Cilie Yack's Cooking Club Contest" in your email and be sure to add the photo. Add a few sentences about the recipe. Tell us the ingredients. Say how you made it. And tell us a little bit about yourself. We need to know your age, if you are a boy or a girl, and what allergies you have. We will write you back you when it is published on our website. Then comes the fun part! You need to get your family and friends to VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!
You will be happy to know there's more than one. I hate when lots of kids enter contests and only one guy is the winner. Not in this club! We've got some stuff that we will send out that you will be able to download and enjoy. But the best recipe photos are going to get cool stuff mailed right to their house. We have chef hats, kitchen aprons, autographed Cilie Yack is Under Attack books, and some really neat manufacturer's prizes too from our sponsors. Please BE SURE to include any food allergies you have in your entry letter and a nice picture of yourself that we can include on our website in case you are a winner!
