As many of you know, we hosted a Twitter Party with Canadian Lentils in January to put the call-out for potential Stars of the Show and have their very own cooking show! The judging took place in February and in April, the five selected bloggers and future stars made their way to Prince Edward Island and Chef Michael Smith's Test Kitchen! And now, fast forward four months and after much anticipation, the five episodes are about to go live!
The stars are ready for their big screen debut and we're having a party to celebrate with five amazing lentil dishes and great prizes!
We're going to be joined during the party by the folks at Canadian Lentils and Chef Michael Smith! We'll be sharing lentil recipes, tips/tricks on cooking with lentils and other fun tidbits from a week of cooking with Chef Smith!
The Stars of the Show and Their Recipes!
Get ready to feast your eyes on some amazing dishes that had the entire film crew salivating for the Director to yell "CUT" so they could try the recipes themselves! The videos will be live soon for your viewing, cooking and eating pleasure!
