It is time for me to host No Croutons Required.
But first, I suspect you would like to find out who won the Mushroom Challenge in April.
The winner was Suganya over at Tasty Palettes. Suganya won the challenge with her Baked Portobello.
Doesn't it look mouthwatering?
If you missed the mushroom challenge, you can catch up with the roundup here.
-----------------------------
On with the challenge!
To celebrate the end of Winter, we are asking for a salad.
Our theme this month is cheese, be it blue, crumbly, creamy, pongy, smoky, gooey or chewy. From vegetarian to vegan.
The Rules
1. Post about your Cheese Salad.
2. Mention "No Croutons Required" in your post and link back to Tinned Tomatoes. You are free to use the "No Croutons Required" logo in your post.
3. Email me a link to your post at nocroutonsrequired@googlemail.com and include your name, the name of your blog, your location and the name of your dish, with any anecdotes.
4. Entries must be in by 20 May 2008.
The roundup of entries will then be posted and readers will be able to vote for their favorite salad in the poll.
The winning salad will be announced at the end of the month and the winner will receive this super duper badge to display on their blog.5. Good luck :)
I was all excited as I have a cheesy soup I want to do and then I saw it was a salad! Hmm will have to think about it - and try not to forget to serve the cheese altogether like I did tonight - but I can see that sugyana's mushrooms were great inspiration!
ReplyDeleteSugyana's mushroom was my favourite too and perfect theme as I LOVE LOVE LOVE cheese! ;)
ReplyDeleteand a marmite dressing would be perfect for it too ;)
Looking forward to this one--making up some vegan cheese that isn't processed is a true challenge!! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Johanna, cheesy soup, I am intrigued! Yes, you are right, Sugyana's mushrooms could easily be served up for this month's challenge!
ReplyDeleteHey Pixie, I love, love love cheese too! Wish it wasn't so hard on my waistline! It is worth it though, but only without the marmite :0
I wait with baited breath Ricki. Go to it girl!
Yum, that port mush looks super delish! I will make a salad recipe this weekend and submit, sounds like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks Erik, I look forward to seeing your salad :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm...a cheese salad. Should cheese be one of the main ingredients, or can it play a supporting role?
ReplyDeleteHi Vicarious Foodie, as long as cheese of some sort is included, then that is ok :)
ReplyDeletewow cheesy salad! yum! I actually posted about a favourite cheesy salad recipe a little while ago, but I'm guessing you are calling for new posts for this event? If so, no worry - i shall just have to get thinking about a new one!
ReplyDeleteHi Frances, yes new posts. You could always look at adapting the one you loved, if it is a good one!
