While I’m a little late posting this challenge, I’ve confirmed with my first opponent that the timing still works to get things up by Sunday evening. My Mom was kind enough to provide the first challenge. We are to use the following ingredients only, but can get creative with spices, oils, and garnishes:

• Tomato
• Garlic
• Leek
• Orzo
• Any cheese
• Any meat

My first opponent will be Judy from Dallas. Judy and I grew up together and both have a love of cooking. She’ll be a wonderful first contestant, and I can’t wait to see what she cooks!

Check back in on Monday, then don’t forget to vote on who you would rather get stuffed with!
