Eggs Ole’ Hispanic-Inspired Recipe Contest

Sponsored by the Virginia Egg Council, 2017

**This will be in addition to the Peach Contest which is sponsored by the County Fair Committee

Everyone loves eggs. Everyone loves Hispanic food. What a perfect combination for a recipe contest! Preliminary competitions will be held all across Virginia at local fairs during the 2017 fair season, and the Carroll County Fair is one of them, and it will culminate at the State Fair of Virginia, during Hispanic Heritage Month, on Saturday, October 7, 2017.

Recipes:

Must use a minimum of 4 eggs or at least one/half egg per serving.
Must have a LATIN or HISPANIC flavor, with ingredients, name, presentation or origin.
May be for traditional Latino recipes but need to have a personal twist*
Entered may be for appetizers, hand-held items, breakfasts, casseroles, side dishes, entrees or desserts.
Must be written listing ingredients in order of use, and include prep instructions clearly stated, with time/temp/serving numbers included.
Will be presented for judging, following proper food safety standards.
Will all be judged as adult entries.
May be used for promotions & presentations by the Virginia Egg Council.

*Your personal twist might be the addition of certain veggies, herbs, the way it’s presented, etc. We’re looking for your adaptation of recipes – not ones right out of a cookbook.
