You can cook your way through this list just for fun, AND, if you want, you can enter to win prizes!

- Make one recipe and enter for an individual prize;
- OR complete the entire bucket list (all 8 recipes plus sharing a meal with a friend) and enter to win our grand prize of $1,000 cash!

This one is new! The goal is to add a bit of sunshine to someone’s day by bringing them a meal or treat.
A few ideas could be:
- Donate to a food-related organization. We love the work that World Central Kitchen does!
- Grab coffee with a friend or family member.
- Bring cookies to a neighbor.
- Share a meal with someone going through a hard season.
- Have friends over for dinner.
This does not need to be a Pinch of Yum recipe. Just be sure to send a photo of whatever you do. If you make a donation to a food-related organization, you can email us the receipt and blur out the donation amount or any other personal info!
Prize: $250 gift card to Williams Sonoma, Nordic Ware, DeLallo, ALDI, or Caraway

Other Important Details
What if I want to make dietary modifications to a recipe?
Make your subs and swaps, no problem! Send us the photo like usual. If you leave a review, it’s super helpful if you note what you changed about the recipe (used shredded jackfruit instead of shredded chicken, for example) in case others might want to do the same!
The only way to get a bonus entry is to leave a review on the recipe itself! As long as you use the same email address for both entries, that will count as two entries.
I would LOVE to see your recipe photos on Instagram as well – if you tag @pinchofyum, I should be able to find them!
Can I enter the individual giveaways and the grand prize?
Yes!
Do I need to make all of the recipes and share a meal with a friend in order to be eligible for the grand prize?
Yes!
Do I need to make a Pinch of Yum recipe when I share a meal with a friend?
It does not need to be a Pinch of Yum recipe! Just be sure to snap a photo so we can count it as an entry.
How old do I have to be to participate?
To be entered to win a prize, you will need to be 18 years or older.
Do I need to live in the U.S. to win?
Individual prizes are limited to U.S. residents.
The grand prize can be won by anyone worldwide.
How will winners be chosen?
By emailing your completed recipe image to us, you are entered to win the prize associated with that recipe. A bonus entry is counted when you leave a rating for the recipe on the blog.
Winners will be selected at random from individual recipe entries (combining email entries with rating entries). We do not choose based on photo quality or any other characteristics of your entry – they are chosen at random!
Once a winner is selected, each individual will have the option to choose the gift card they’d like to receive (Caraway, ALDI, DeLallo, Nordic Ware, and Williams Sonoma).
Can I win multiple prizes?
One prize per winner is allowed.
If your name is selected for a prize, a member of our team will contact you on April 12th through the email address used for your entry.
Individual prizes will be shipped to the selected winners (based in the US), and the grand prize cash will be delivered via PayPal.
We’re so ready and very excited to kick off such a happy season and get some of these tried-and-true recipes in your kitchen!
I will be making these recipes on Instagram throughout the next 4-ish weeks as we run this Spring Bucket List challenge, so be sure to check stories, reels, and highlights on Instagram to see the recipes up close and personal in my kitchen! You can follow along here.
And as you’re making the recipes, if you have questions, feel free to drop a comment on the recipe post or email our team at [emailprotected]!
Happy spring cooking!
