Iron Chef March Champ & Announcement!

Photobucket

At the close of the poll, it looked like this:

Chicken Fettucini Carbonara - 10
Rice Crispie Chicken - 7
Chicken Georgia - 15

Adding my family's votes to the mix it ends up like this:

Chicken Fettucini Carbonara - 12
Rice Crispie Chicken - 8
Chicken Georgia - 16

Which means that Chicken Georgia from Rhonda at Down Memory Lane
is the winner of this lovely apron!!



Congratulations Rhonda!! Email me at the addy on my profile page with your address and I will get your apron in the mail to ya!! You can grab one of these Iron Chef Champ buttons and proudly display it on your blog.

Thank you to Bridget and Heidi for playing along!

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Now, we're going to be shaking things up a bit in April and changing how we hold this little blogstyle cooking competition. EVERYONE will still get a chance to vote, but what I need from you all is for THREE people willing to try out and vote on the next batch of recipes, to email me to be a "Celebrity Judge" in Iron Chef: April. The first three people to email me, get the gig for April. Remember, I need you to commit to trying all three recipes and then giving me your vote on which one was your family's favorite.

We'll be having 4 Celebrity Judges (myself being one of them) and then we'll count the popular vote (poll) as our fifth vote. This is more in line with what is actually done on Iron Chef - with our little bloggy twist thrown in.

I also need your help picking the ingredient for next month! I'm putting a poll up in my sidebar for you to vote on and I'll make it official next Wednesday.

Thanks for playing along in my little Iron Chef game!!!

Congrats to Rhonda. This was my favorite recipe. Since I am a crockpot mom I have to vote for that to be the April Challenge. Have a blessed Wednesday!

I have not had a chance to try these, but congrats to the winner... I have them in my to try box now..... I've got a house full of picky eaters.

I do not want to be a guest judge, but I would like to second the crockpot idea for the April challenge. Or maybe a vegetarian challenge...but that just might scare everyone off!
Yay for Georgia Chicken!

Congratulations to Rhonda. That was the only recipe we didn't try since Dan is allergic to mushrooms and I can't get the kids to eat them.

Kameron said...

Cool apron, and good luck on the April contest. Maybe I'll even try a recipe. we'll see! (ahem.)
BTW, Have I ever told you how creative you are? Your ideas amaze me! Like making a bulletin board resume? Priceless! I have been laughing over that for a week now, but keep forgetting to tell you. I'm off to bed now, as my fingers won't type anymore...

Congrats to Rhonda...I have to try the winning chicken recipe!

I not only tried ALL of them, but I'll be blogging today on our take on the recipes. ;) I really enjoyed doing this! I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to be a celebrity judge if you haven't already filled the slots.

And POOH my crockpot is busted, so if that's the one that's picked, I'm either in trouble, or using grocery money to buy a new one. ;)

Watch my blog today for my post on your challenge!

Oh the pot thickens! (haha, sad, I know)

I think this idea is fantastic, I'm so glad you're going with it. I can't wait to see what comes next, and I SUPER PROMISE (which, as we all know is better than a regular promise) that I'll participate this time!! I even voted in your poll! I would love to be a celebrity judge sometime. Sounds like yummy fun to me, and a motivation to attempt to cook for my family of six is a good reason too!

CONGRATS RHONDA!!
