Got a killer original sweet potato recipe? Well, post it to your blog and you could bag a more-than-sweet $1,000 prize. The North Carolina Sweet Potato Commission has just announced their 2009 Bloggers' Recipe Challenge. The $1,000 prize will be awarded to the creator of the winning recipe; five finalists will win $100 prizes.
Check out the instructions, directly from the North Carolina Sweet Potato Commission, after the jump.
- CREATE an original recipe using sweet potatoes as the main ingredient in a quick-to-make everyday family meal. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack ideas are all welcome, as long as they can be put together quickly enough to join the family at mealtime. (Hints): Don't just mash them-sass 'em: Spice them, zing them, slice or dice them. Think outside the Thanksgiving box and put sweet potatoes on the table every day in new and different ways.
- POST your recipe on your blog any time from February 21 through March 31. . (Only blog content managers age 18 or older living in the U.S. can enter.) Use your blog to fill us in on your entire sweet potato creative experience, from entering the contest to your recipe's inspiration.
- ENTER E-mail your recipe to us: sassysweets@lewis-neale.com, any time between February 21 through March 31 along with your name, blog URL, e-mail address, mailing address, telephone number(s)*, and a brief note about where you heard about the contest. Make sure your blog posting includes the link to your recipe.

We like to just peel them then cube them and steam them. a little S&P and maybe some butter and they're done. Kids love it. good stuff. Yum.
