All entries must consist of an original recipe for a healthy lunchtime meal that is authored by an eligible Child of an eligible Parent (as described in Rule 1 above) and which incorporates the USDA nutrition guidance supporting MyPlate at ChooseMyPlate.gov, particularly filling half your plate with fruits and vegetables. Each entry must include:

(i) the title of the recipe;

(ii) a brief essay giving some details about the recipe (e.g., how did you come up with it? Like MyPlate, how can you make half your plate fruits and vegetables? What would you serve with your recipe so that you can include all or most of the major food groups, as detailed on ChooseMyPlate.gov? Would you include on the side a fruit, veggie, lean protein, whole grain or low-fat dairy? Is your recipe gluten-free, lactose-free or nut-free?);

(iii) an ingredient list in order of use with exact measurements given in common U.S. household measures (all ingredients must be commonly available at local retailers and must be referred to by generic name, not brand name);

(iv) step-by-step preparation instructions, including cooking times;

(v) the number of servings the recipe will make; and

(vi) a photograph or drawing of the completed dish (photographs must not depict the Child or any other person, and those submitted online must be under 2MB and formatted as jpg, png, or non-animated gif).
