The Blogger Secret Ingredient for this week was kabocha (Japanese pumpkin) and I had some wonderful entries:
- Junghwa’s Kabocha Ezekiel Sandwich
- Sophia’s Kabocha-Lentil Burgers
- Michelle’s Oven-roasted Fusion Kabocha
- Cindy’s Nuts for Kabocha
- Elise’s Baked Kabocha
- Heather’s Kabocha with Almond Butter
- Alison’s Soy-Braised Curry Kabocha
- Coco’s Ideas for Kabocha
I asked Bobby to help me pick the winner, and this week’s winner is…
Michelle, with Oven-Roasted Fusion Kabocha! (My mom actually commented that this looked amazing and incredibly gourmet – she reads the blog.) Go make her recipe!
Thank you so much for all of the creative entries. I’m passing on the BSI to the only person that might love kabocha more than me (well, I’m pretty sure she loves it at least as much): Sophia @ Burp and Slurp~. Check in on her blog for the next Blogger Secret Ingredient announcement!
The Whole Life Challenge continues… check back in tomorrow for an update.
Have a wonderful Memorial Day! Take a moment to remember our fallen troops.
