Hi SPAM™ fans,
If you’re like me you will be anticipating the start of the summer holidays with a slight sense of trepidation. Do cries of ‘I’m bored!’, ‘What’s for lunch?’, ‘Where are you going? Can I come?’ sound familiar to you? In short a lack of peace and quiet until the school bell rings again!
With this in mind I would strongly advise those looking to enter SPAM® Cook of the Year to grab your aprons and notebooks sooner rather than later! Entries close on 31st August so when you come to it, upload your SPAM™licious creations, together with a picture (optional), via www.spam-uk.com and you could claim the coveted title of SPAM® Cook of the Year 2010.
This year’s winner will get a luxurious two night stay for two at an exclusive Oxford Hotels and Inns location – complete with a free spa treatment and complimentary breakfast and dinner – and an iPod touch – if I could enter to be in with a chance of winning these prizes I would!
The victorious recipe will also inspire a dish on one of the hotel restaurant’s menus, a money- can’t-buy prize that will give you true culinary fame!
So what are you waiting for? Drop the children off at school, grab a tin of SPAM® products, head to the kitchen and have fun experimenting whilst you still have the chance! And, if you lose track of time and quickly need to pull a delicious and simple meal together for your evening meal follow my recipe for Mild Curried SPAM® Pilaff with Cashew Nuts at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hB098mgGs0
Until next time guys!
