Introduction

Welcome to the Steemit #homesteadingchallenge! The goal of this challenge is to unite the Steemit homesteading community with a fun and invigorating bi-weekly contest!

The #homesteadingchallenge will require a variety of different tasks and requests from anyone who wishes to participate. Examples of tasks include taking a photo of your livestock, answering a prompt question regarding homesteading, etc. Each challenge will have a different goal / theme so please read the announcement carefully.

What’s in it for you?

I plan to transfer ALL of the SBD reward the announcement articles earn to the winner of each challenge! The more support from each of you, the bigger the potential reward! One winner will be chosen for each challenge.

Rules

Steemit HomesteadingChallenge #11

Share your favorite homemade recipe!

You may pick a family favorite, a sentimental secret recipe, a vegetarian or vegan variation… you name it!In order to be entered into the running, it is only necessary for you to share the recipe and instructions. However you may be able to earn some “bonus points” if you actually cook the meal this week and share proof of the process with photos (please include one verification photo with your username/date written on paper)!

Entries will NOT be judged on whether or not the dish is considered “healthy”, how long it takes to make the recipe, or how many ingredients are needed to make the recipe… so go crazy!

Entries WILL be judged mainly on presentation (#foodphotography), but also on how “easy” the dish is to make on a homestead (ie. how many ingredients can be grown/produced/butchered on your homestead instead of purchased at a store) and if you are able to potentially cook/bake the dish using alternative methods (ie. energy efficient appliances, solar ovens, fire roasted, etc).

If you use a recipe from a website or blog, please include the source! Even if you change the recipe based on personal taste preferences, at least mention that the dish you created was “adapted from” the original source.

You have ONE WEEK to write your submission for this challenge - please post it by 11:00 PM (CDT) [UTC offset: UTC -5] on Sunday April 8, 2018!

Don’t forget to include #homesteadingchallenge as one of your tags! Please link your submission and tag me (@kiaraantonoviche) in this article’s comments below! This is how I will find the submissions! I will also try to comment on each submission to let you know that I have seen it and that it has been entered into the contest!

Winner will be chosen the following day - Monday, April 9, 2018 - and winnings will be paid immediately following this announcement post’s payout. An article announcing the winner with photographic proof of the reward payment will be posted following the reward dispersement.

I’ll try my best to make this challenge (and future challenges) fun, inspirational, and most of all… worthy of your time!

Good luck!
