Calling All Creative Culinary Geniuses

The Mambolicious Recipe Cook-Off is on again. Winners to receive year's worth of product prizes and other goods from organic and natural food manufacturers.

Collingswood, NJ (PRWEB) May 16, 2008 -- Mambo Sprouts Marketing announces the Mambolicious recipe contest, with great prizes and awards from renowned organic and natural food companies such as Organic Valley, San-J, Equal Exchange and Jane's Krazy Mixed-Up Seasonings. The Mambolicious Recipe Cook-Off is calling on all creative chefs to slice, dice, bake and sauté their way to win a year's supply of products, gift cards to their favorite natural food store and other great prizes.

With rising food costs and increasing health concerns, Mambo Sprouts Marketing has been inviting consumers to share their best "original" healthy recipes to win prizes and help others lead a healthier lifestyle. These recipes are often featured online and published in the Mambo Sprouts Messenger newsletter and coupon booklets reaching over 2 million people.

Once again, Mambo Sprouts Marketing is giving consumers the opportunity to win great prizes for their delicious creations. Previous contests over the past three years pulled in over 5,000 recipe submissions, yielding more than 20,000 votes for the best tasting, healthy recipes and thousands of dollars worth of prizes given away.

Organic and natural food manufacturers; Organic Valley, San-J, Equal Exchange, and Jane's Krazy Mixed-Up Seasonings are offering fabulous prizes, such as gift certificates to save on food shopping and a year's supply of products, for their consumers' original recipes. The top five recipes will be chosen by Mambo Sprouts in four separate categories and will be posted online for readers to vote on their favorites. Consumers can enter their recipes online at http://www.mambosprouts.com. The contest begins April 21 and runs through June 6, 2008.

Online voting for the five finalists per category will run from June 27, 2008 through July 11, 2008. During this time consumers will have the opportunity to vote by category for their favorite finalist entry to determine the grand prize winner. Voters will be encouraged to judge the entries based on use of product, appetite appeal, originality/creativity, and nutritional value.

Consumers may enter in more than one category; however, each entry must feature a different recipe and must be original. Specific contest rules with category and eligible products are available at www.mambosprouts.com.
