STEEMIT CULINARY CHALLENGE #38 - Winners & New Theme - Everyone Welcome for SBD Prizes!

Many thanks to last week's guest judge @patelincho for the fun theme "Healthy Yet Tempting Food For Children".  This fab theme brought in many excellent recipes that were indeed healthy and kiddie-tempting!  Sometimes children take dislikes to certain foods, and it can be super difficult to get them to eat when their minds are made up (I sense some heads nodding, haha).  But thank goodness for the power of imagination, as with a creative head on us parents are usually able to get the healthy stuff into them with a few artistic tricks and disguises!  

It can often be easier to relent after a hard day working or parenting, and just bang some chicken nuggets in the oven rather than face rejection of the healthy food... yet again.  But healthy eating is much more than just maintaining slim figures or avoiding rotten teeth - it really is a serious matter of life and death.  It's the difference between frequent sickness & infections or rare sickness & infections.  It's the difference between asthma or no asthma, behavioural problems, digestive issues, headaches, muscle and joint issues, type 2 diabetes, anxiety.  The difference between the onset of an autoimmune disorder, or much much worse.  Yes, sometimes the most important thing after yet more dinner disputes with your child is just to get some fuel into them, no matter what the fuel, but generally speaking we can't keep putting processed rubbish into their little bodies and act surprised when symptoms start presenting.  Anyway, enough serious, back to the fun... Phew!!!


Just a quick mention again to make sure you're aware of the recent CHANGES TO RULES - scroll down to the rules section to check.


For those of you who have never entered this challenge before - it's very easy, just SCROLL DOWN for this week's THEME, RULES and PRIZES.  You don't have to be a master chef - just try to be creative with your recipes and take beautiful photos, since unfortunately we can't taste the entries so you must help us do this with our imaginations!  Original recipes are encouraged, but you may use someone else's recipe as long as you credit the original source.

This week's guest judge is @heart-to-heart, a very creative and soulful person in many areas... including in the kitchen!  She is passionate about health and healthy food, and likes to encourage healthy choices in others too.  She regularly shares her culinary creations, so if you enjoy healthy, tasty and unique food then check out her blog!  You'll find all kinds of interesting things to browse through there - travel, photography, life stories, etc.  @heart-to-heart had a little trouble deciding on a theme for this week, but in the end chose 'Vegan Dishes From Around The Globe' because she's excited to see all the different kinds of vegan recipes that will be created by everyone in their different cultures.  She also tells me she intends to make them all, so guys you'd better come up with some creative and healthy food to ensure @heart-to-heart really does try out your recipes!  Most of all have fun and make your food really beautiful so we can enjoy admiring it :-)
