Mission Menus Challenge!

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Mission Foods. All opinions are 100% mine.

Mission Tortillas are my favorite tortillas to use.  They are versatile and can be used with mexican dishes, sandwich wraps, or even breakfast wraps.  One of my favorite things to use them for is a salad wrap.  What I do is wrap up romaine lettuce, cheese, rance dressing, and chopped grilled chicken for a nice and easy salad warp.  YUM YUM!  My kids also use these to make simple quesidillas.  Pretty much anything I wrap up in a Mission Tortilla is quickly scarfed down by my children.  The wrap makes it very kid friendly!  My husband enjoys wrapping up an egg and sausage wrap to grab on his way out the door to work.  Mission Flour Tortillas contain 0 grams Trans fat per serving and are cholesterol free, so they are great for anyone trying to watch their food intake. They are available in small (6″), medium (8″) and large (10”) sizes in major grocery stores nationwide.

Check out Mission Menus Challenge for examples of quick & easy, budget-friendly meals for $10 using Mission Flour Tortillas and to gain inspiration for your creative recipe submissions.  Mission Foods is proud to support Share Our Strength, the leading national organization committed to ending childhood hunger in America. You can help by visiting Mission Menus Challenge and learning more about Mission Foods commitment to Share Our Strength in supporting this life-changing cause.

Mission Foods is kicking off the summer with the Mission Menus Challenge.   Beginning June 28, 2010, Chef Sara Moulton will encourage consumers to submit their budget-friendly recipes to Mission at Mission Menus Challenge for a chance to compete in a cook-off in Los Angeles and win a $10,000 dream kitchen makeover as well as a host of weekly prizes.   The grand prize winner will win round-trip airfare and hotel accommodations for two to the Mission Menus Challenge Cook-off on September 10, 2010 at the Hard Rock Café in Los Angeles.  Until August 9th, you have the chance to submit your recipe online.• Feed a family of five for $10 or less

I think with as frugal as all of us are, the feeding a family of 5 for $10 or less should be an easy challenge!

Happy Friday!

It’s Friday!! The weekend is so close! The best thing about Friday is that is MEGA SWAGBUCKS DAY!!!

What is Swagbucks?
Swagbucks is a search engine similar to google or yahoo, but when you search, you earn SWAGBUCKS! You can use these bucks to get great prizes! 450 bucks gets you a $5 amazon Giftcard! I’ve been a member for about a year and have earned over $200 in Amazon Giftcads! Not bad! I plan to use swagbucks giftcards to buy our Christmas presents this year.

How do I sign up?
To sign up, just CLICK HERE and fill out the form. Then start searching!

How else can I earn Swagbucks?
My advice is to fan them on facebook, follow on twitter, and keep an eye on their blog. They will give away codes and then you just paste the code into the homepage and you’ll get more bucks!

Happy Swagbucking! Let me know if you find anything good!
