The last few weeks I have run a series of posts on how to include more veggies in your diet (scroll down for all the links). Now that that’s done and dusted, I thought it would be fun to run a competition to further encourage you to get into the kitchen and get creating. This is a great opportunity for you to start experimenting with new ways to prepare and cook vegetables, and to start including more vegetables into you and your families’ diets.

 

So – lets get to the competition!

Firstly, the nitty gritty of it all –

The intention of the competition is to encourage people to start including more vegetables in their diet, through trying out different techniques and recipes. To enter, you’ll need to submit a photo of a dish you have prepared that focuses on using vegetables in a creative and interesting way. Photos can be submitted three ways

• via Instagram – simply upload to your account and tag @tohercore and #eatmoreveggiescomp
• via Facebook – upload to http://www.facebook.com/tohercore or if you have a public page, upload to your own page and make sure to tag me
•  via email – simply post your pic through to tohercore (at) gmail (dot) com 

You have until midnight (AEST) on Friday, 15th of August to submit your photos

Photos will be judged based on creativity as well as what the dish means to you and how it has allowed you to easily include more vegetables into your diet, so please include a little of your story when you submit your photo.

Entry is available to Australian residents only

 

And now the exciting part –
