Contest Info

Create a sustainable fish dinner for under $25 and win $250!

Last year, we asked you to create an original recipe using one of the fish on our Smart Seafood Guide. We got tons of amazing entries and created Fish & Tips, a collection of some of our judges' favorite ones!

This year, many of us are trying to be more careful about how much we spend, so we’re taking the challenge up a notch. The grand prize is $250; ten runners-up will win a Food & Water Watch gift, and all winners will be featured in an online recipe collection!

Entering:

Recipes can be submitted online, by email to contest(at)fwwatch.org, or by mail to Food & Water Watch, attn: Erica Schuetz, 1616 P St. NW, Suite 300, Washington, DC, 20036.

Alongside the list of ingredients necessary for your meal, please include the price of each item.

Deadline:
The contest opens Friday, September 18, 2009 and closes at midnight EST on Friday, October 16. Winners will be announced at the end of October.

Judging:
All entries will be judged by Chef Rocky Barnette and Food & Water Watch staff. Criteria for judging include use of a recommended fish from Food & Water Watch’s Smart Seafood Guide (including regional fish); healthiness; originality; and deliciousness!  Bonus points for recipes that are easy to prepare, and the more sustainable, local and healthy your ingredients, the better!

Prizes:
The grand-prize winner will receive a check for $250 from Food & Water Watch, as well as a Food & Water Watch gift.

All winners will receive a Food & Water Watch gift and be featured in the online recipe collection this coming fall.

Rules:
The meal must be an original creation of the person entering the contest. You may submit more than one entry, but only one entry per person can win. All seafood used must be recommended in the Food & Water Watch Smart Seafood Guide. The meal must be possible to create within the budget; please include the price of each ingredient to show how you arrived at your cost.
