My Legume Love Affair, Sixth Helping: Hot & Spicy – Entries, Prize and the Winner

Here is the lineup of entries for the sixth edition of My Legume Love Affair, Hot & Spicy. I want to thank all of you who participated in the event.

My heartfelt thanks to the wonderful Well Seasoned Cook Susan, for not only giving me an opportunity to host, but also for being such a sport. I was at a liberty to make this event based on a theme, as opposed to being generic. Also, when I approached her with a different kind of prize, she was totally game. She even designed the logo. What else could a guest-host ask for? If you are looking to host this wildly popular event, drop a line at Susan’s event page or email her. You may be on a long wait-list, but it is so much fun.

Before going to the entries, there is a prize to be announced. Susan, the creator of this event, sponsors a prize for a random winner. The hosts have the choice of selecting the prize. Being an environmentally-conscious individual, I wanted to utilize this opportunity to spread the word. Through some simple, but effective steps, ‘Going Green’ is quite achievable. Swapping those flimsy plastic grocery bags with reusable ones is one such act. And if they are these gorgeous bags, won’t it be a delight to shop? One lucky winner will find these stylish, reusable and recyclable grocery bags at their door steps. With the dawn of new year, lets resolve to take more steps toward a greener world.

Lisa of Lisa’s Kitchen is the winner. Her entry was a simple, but toothsome bowl of brown lentils and moong dal in cashew-almond sauce. Congratulations Lisa. Please write to Susan with your mailing address.
