all competitions

With their bright colors and sun-drenched flavors, fruits and veggies picked at their prime make eating and cooking even more of a delight. Our next contest celebrates the incomparable taste of just-harvested tomatoes, berries, onions, spinach and all the other summer produce that fills backyard gardens, farmers markets and grocery stores this time of year.

No matter what the fruit or veggie, we want your very best garden-fresh recipes—the dishes family and friends request, the ones that knock their socks off! Whether it's sweet, savory, breakfast, dinner, dessert, or even a drink, we'd love to see it. It only takes a minute to enter our contest, but your recipe could live on in Taste of Home history!

We're looking for...

* Muffins, quick breads, pies and cakes featuring berries, rhubarb, zucchini, sweet potato, pumpkin and more
* Pancakes, eggs and French toast spiked with the fresh flavors of the season
* Appetizers and snacks that put produce center stage, such as stuffed tomatoes, summer squash tarts, and sweet pea and ricotta crostini
* Salads, soups and sides chock-full of herbs, greens, potatoes, green beans, strawberries and anything else that grows in your garden
* Entrees starring whatever crop you're up to your elbows in, from apples and beets to corn and carrots
* Drinks and desserts—hot or cold—that capitalize on sun-kissed ingredients ripe for the picking
