MIAMI GARDENS HEALTHY RETAIL RECIPE CONTEST
Starting in the spring of 2020, each month or so we will announce a new key ingredient to commence a recipe contest between Miami Gardens residents. Submitted recipes must contain the key ingredient and must be from a Miami Gardens area resident. Each month we will review recipe submissions and announce a winner who will receive $50 to their local Florida Healthy Corner store to stock up on some food. Then we will announce a new key ingredient for a fresh contest the following month.
If you decide to share your recipe on social media, please use the hashtag #healthyretailrecipe in your posts!
