Swanson Healthy Foods Recipe Contest

Contest Qualifications

number 1 Focus on health.

Develop a main dish, a salad, a beverage, a dessert, a soup or a snack/appetizer that is nutritionally dense and heart-healthy. It cannot contain trans-fats or unhealthy fat of any kind, and it should not contain white sugar, white flour and excessive amounts of salt. If you have questions about whether or not we regard an ingredient as "healthy," please contact us at recipes@swansonvitamins.com.

number 2Include at least three ingredients from Swanson Health Products.

Your recipe can contain as many ingredients as you like, but three or more of them must be available for purchase at Swanson Health Products. Embolden your recipe with our selection of organic herbs and spices, Himalayan Crystal Salt and whole black peppercorns. Make it creamy and smooth with coconut oil, olive oil, walnut oil or sun butter. Appeal to the sweet tooth with honey, xylitol, trehalose, fructose or dried fruit. Add chopped nuts, seeds, beans, etc.—you get the idea. Food products from our national vendors like Eden Foods and YS Organic Bee Products count toward the three-item minimum, too. If you’re looking for ideas to get your creative juices flowing, check out our recipe archive or visit the Healthy Foods section of our website.

number 3Tell us what inspired your creation.

Is it a family favorite? Did you see it in a magazine? Are you trying to recreate an irrresistible dish you recently tried at a new Thai restaurant? Have you been devising tasty, but low-calorie menu options for your own weight-loss strategy? Tell us all about it, but please keep the text to a maximum of 200 words.
