πŸ’ This challenge goes out to all the real Steemit foodies πŸ’
Yes peeps...
it's time WHIP out the creative cook in you!

And before I go any further,
Let me just say that this challenge is open to EVERYONE
(Boys and girls, Young and old)
whether you consider yourself a professional,
novice or complete disaster in the kitchen!

The objective here is purely creativity!

It's as easy as PIE, I promise hehe
(see what I did there...huh? huh? lol - ok, moving along...)

INTRODUCING THE

πŸ’

THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE CHALLENGE

In addition to being a complete wine glutton hehe, I am also a HUGELOVE to cook (and eat...lol) - always experimenting with different ingredient and flavour combinations. I seldom follow recipes verbatim – most of the time, I will whizz through them, glancing briefly at the ingredients and method – then heading off to the supermarket, forgetting most of what I have read on the recipe and then improvising,
ending up with something totally awesome and unique! foodie as my @steemitbloggers family know well… I absolutely

I know how much I love pushing the boundaries and experimenting in the kitchen, no matter how outlandish the ideas may seem to others. I also love to learn from others and then adapt the ideas to my own tailored tastes. So I thought it would be awesome to see how creative other people get in their kitchens... whether it is a "pimp'd" toasted cheese sandwich or a "rebel" gourmet appetiser.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

Yes, here comes the boring recipe part
with rules and boundaries... JUUUST KIDDING!

Rules are meant to be broken!
>Insert evil grin here<

ok, ok.... seriously...

here's how it's going to ROLL:
(hehe could not help myself with that one)

πŸ’

1: Use the #whatscookingchallenge tag and tag me @jaynie in your post.

2: Create and publish a post showcasing something that
you have prepared in your kitchen which is either
a) uniquely yours, or b) has been adapted and made your own.
(The more elaborate the post the better, naturally...)
PS. This is NOT limited to "plates of food" - it can be preserves, snacks, anything!

3: Accompany the post with at least 2 photos of whatever it is that you have prepared.
(and in the spirit of avoiding plagiarism, a photo of YOU WITH your dish would be a plus, but is not a requirement)

4: Tag at least 5 (but not limited to) of your foodie friends
that you think would like to participate...

πŸ’

So what do YOU get out of participating?

Well you get to share your inner chef with Steemit, OBVIOUSLY... hehehe!

Oh, and... for whatever it is worth - you will receive...

1: An upvote from me (25 - 100%)

2: A resteem by me for those that follow ALL of the above
including the pic of you with your masterpiece.

3: Three random entries will be featured every time I re-announce the challenge.

4: And LAST, but DEFINITELY not least, those that include a photo of themselves enjoying a glass of good wine whilst preparing said masterpiece will receive a bonus 1SBD from me
NB: (said masterpiece must be included in the photo, whether on the chopping block, in the pot, or on the plate)

Most importantly, you get to HAVE FUN!!! sharing your creativity in the kitchen and you will also get to scout out the creativity of others by searching the #whatscookingchallenge tag.

GET IT? GOT IT? GOOD....

Ok Girls and Boys...
lets get cooking shall we
And pump up the JAMS while you are at it!
(hehehe, this just never gets old!)

πŸ’

I will be re-announcing this challenge every few days (or more often, depending on my mood swings lol) and from the next feature onward, will also be sharing my own kitchen experiments hehe as well as the three random entry selections as mentioned above.

Cannot WAIT to see what all you fantasticals share... hehe!

What a cool idea!! I can't wait to see what everyone cooks up for this challenge :) So fun :)

And what about you @lynncoyle1 ;) coooome oooon...... :P :)

I'll jump on the next cooking train for sure! Don't you be puttin' a bug in anyone's ear, but perhaps I'll be tagged by someone here :)

hahaha ANY TIME @lynncoyle1 - its going to be an ongoing thing, so... looking forward to seeing what you come up with :)

ok perfect! I'll put it on my never-ending to-do list ;)

hahahaha yeaaah I have one of those too LOL!!!

I bet you do!! We keep adding more than were scratching off as completed haha

Yay! Yay! I will do something very original for this challenge, I admit I don't like to cook but I love to eat, so I will prepare something very simple and healthy... thank you for this opportunity.

Cannot wait to see what you come up with @melvadg - and simple is good too! Have fun!!

sadly, I can't participate, my creations are done from my head, and I have no "amounts as to how much" for anything. Some I have been making for years... I have created a lot of masterpieces, and master messes over the years, love to cook though!

Not sure if you read the entire post @skiponline, but thats the entire purpose of the #whatscookingchallenge is that I want to see how you make things your own! So go wild, have fun, follow and lets see what you got ;)

Sounds like fun. wish I'd known about this yesterday! I would have entred the BIG EYED TUNA story..LOL..

Yes @thethreehugs that would have been awesome! But... its ongoing so am sure you will have something else to enter soon. hehe :)

What a tantalising intro to the contest!! Haha ... I anticipate delicious recipes served with a whole lotta fun.... Side plate... I mean side note: I had so much fun reading this post 😊

haha thanks @kaerpediem :) Will you be participating? ;)

I love eating but not the best cook haha....hmmmm....I can whip up something in the name of good, clean fun .... ok sold!!! I’m in πŸ’ͺ🏾

yay!!! Looking forward to it :D @kaerpediem

I can see my name there. hehe. Will take up the challenge @jaynie. Great one !;)

@iamjadeline YAY!!!!!!!!!! Look forward to what you put forward hon xxx

You are a HUGE foodie you said, i guess you have got a partner in that sphere...hmmmm, just that i don't like the kitchen when it comes to preparing the meal but all thanks to you for giving room for terrible cooks to participate.
Nice one

hahaha my pleasure :)

This is so cool, @jaynie. I think I'm participating though I don't cook anything too fancy lol.

On a side note, I don't drink wine, neither have I a wine glass. Can I substitute with any other drink, which I do take a sip anyway while waiting for my cooking to be done? Hahaha.

Can't wait to see tons of recipes coming up! Then I know what to cook for in my regular days. You are a genius to come out with this challenge! Xx

hahaha sure thing @happycrazycon :) And what you make needn't be complicated ;) Cant wait to see!!!

Oh I love the idea! Since my current phone has a bad camera, I'll get my sister's DSLR hopefully tomorrow and then participate in this challenge.

Looking forward to see what you put forward @sharoonyasir :)

Such a great idea - well done and looking forward to seeing the results!

You must do it mom ;)

Great idea but I must confess I have been real bad in the kitchen department lately - so I think I will stick to working and eating hahaha but good luck to all the cooks

hehehehehe!!! Thanks @anneke I am quite excited to see what comes out of this :)

Oh, F**k! You know how bad I am at (a) selfies and (b) including photos of me with the food. That is SO not going to happen! Hahaha!

How long is the challenge open for? Am going to be in the kitchen (ha!) for the next few days - Easter so it's pickled fish... and not in front of the computer... ??? Love this idea, though, and yes, as you guessed it, I will be rising to the challenge. Oh, and I have to be making chilli jam in the next couple of weeks, too!!

YAY!!!! @fionasfavourites - it is ongoing so you can do it ANY time! :) Cannot WAIT! hehehehe... time to whip out that selfie stick :P LOL

Selfie-stick. Not on your nellie! May rope Tom in. If I MUST. Hehehe!

hahahaha!!!! Doooo it!!! lol

This looks so delicious! I was thinking about making a recipes and step by step here on Steemit too. Now I think that might be a good idea :)

Keep on keeping on. πŸ˜‡
Resteemed.I have already put up on my blog all my fav's from granma. And my personal favourite was my first attempt in my tiny kitchenette in which I used photos - #0130 - but I will attempt another variation of one of my fav's not yet posted, and will attempt to get photos as each action completed. I have just recently resteemed @whattheduck with his delicious recipe, and @senseicat with theirs. To tag folk, is to enter whatscookingchallenge in the tags yesΒΏ ok, I'll have time this w/e.

steady let us share the goodness of love in reply with love @tasier22
