IDEA: Cook-Off
Organize a local, weekly or bi-weekly, cook-off.
- All contestants must supply their own ingredients
- Dishes will be judged by yourself, past winners, and maybe some hungry friends
- The winner's recipe will be published on the web along with a short cheesy bio
- The winner chooses the next competition's theme
- At the end of the year, all the recipes will be compiled into a cookbook along with photos and stuff from the competition
Free food and profits from a recipe book that other people wrote for you. Plus the whole community building thing which is always good – as long as some good comes out of it, it's not an evil plan.
