    Is it a typo that this competition finishes on 14th February when it's September tomorrow?  That's a very long time for a competition to be held.

    Not sure if this is what you meant, but this is my interpretation;

    This morning when I went out to gather eggs from my chickens, I had to shoo away a fox that managed to get into one of the coops. Sadly it killed one if the chickens, so I brought it to the slaughter house. Well, at least we’ll have chicken for dinner! After breakfast I went to check on the rest of my crops. Rice is ready, and I think – that sounds great with chicken! So I gather some up. Next I picked some olives & ran them through the distillery; I’ll need that olive oil in my pan to cook things up tonight. Then I picked vegetable crops, the corn especially looked quite tasty to add to dinner (along with a few others), so I shucked some of that and cut it off the cob. As the rice was cooking, I started to scramble up some of the eggs and was thinking that dinner needed just 1 more flavor, then it hit me; Berries from the winter temp farm! I dried some last winter, that’d be great flavor to add. So, once the eggs were scrambled I threw all the rest into the pan and fried ‘em up. Top with a sprinkle of sugar from the last candy farm (and a few other spices), and voila; my own variation of chicken fried rice. Yum!

    Big farm ingredients; 1) chicken, 2) eggs, 3) rice, 4) olives, 5) olive oil, 6) corn, 7) winter berries, 8) sugar

    (or 7 if you count the olives/olive oil as one)

    First I want to thank you  @ROSYSTARLING for this contest :smiley:

Heat the rest of the oil in a large saucepan, put the flour and stir it on a low heat for a period of one to two minutes until it turns yellow, then remove the saucepan from the heat and add the milk gradually while stirring well, then put the pot on the fire again and continue cooking on low heat with Stir until the mixture is thick and smooth. Add the cream cheese in batches, then add the mushrooms and squeeze it with lemon juice, stir, add salt and black pepper, then put the saucepan on a low heat again for a period of two to three minutes.Pour the soup into the dishes, put a few slices of mushrooms on top, sprinkle a few chopped carrots and some herbs and serve.

     Olives are sliced.

     Pomegranate seeds.
    How to prepare
    Place cabbage, carrots, apples, and cucumbers in a deep bowl, and stir the vegetables to mix.
    Preparing the sauce:
     Put the cream, juice, mayonnaise, salt and pepper in a deep dish and using a fork, stir the ingredients to get a smooth sauce.Distribute the sauce over the vegetables, flip them to mix with the sauce, and put the plate in the refrigerator for about an hour.

Put the salmon in a cooking tray on which aluminum foil is laid, and put the previous sauce mixture on it. We put the tray into the oven at a temperature of one hundred and ninety degrees Celsius for about half an hour.Then served hot.

    Well, I am still trying to think of something more appetizing, but almost every meal here at our house meets this contest requirements - LOL

    For example, today I made childhood favorite for everyone!  Took some wheat (1), ground it up, added a little sugar (2) and spring water (3), mixed them together with some yeast & left it to rise. Sent the kids out to pick grapes (4) and a bucket to smash them up in, while I went to the neighbor's to get some peanuts. When I returned, I stuck the bread in the oven, put the smashed grapes in a pot with some sugar beets (5), then ground the peanuts down and added a little olive oil (6) and honey (7) to make the peanut butter.
    Put 'em together for a classic PB&J!
    (Would be great with a nice cold glass of milk, but sadly we are out. Please BYOM ! - and don't ask what happened with the cows and goats - long story)

    I made extra dessert tonight to share with the mods here. It's so easy, you can make it yourself. Here is the recipe for 2 servings (well, we like it so much it's 2 servings for us).

    Peach Crisp

    1 large PEACH (or 1 well drained 14.5 oz can) cut into chunks
    3Tbsp brown SUGAR
    2Tbsp quick oats
    2Tbsp flour (ground WHEAT)
    1/4tsp cinnamon
    2Tbsp butter, softened (made from cow's MILK)

    Top with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream
    (made tonight with whipped cream; SUGAR, MILK, CORN syrup)


    Place peach chunks on bottom of cooking pan. Not piled too thick, but they should at least cover all surface area. Set aside.

    In a separate bowl, combine all other ingredients, mix until crumbly. Sprinkle over the peaches. Bake at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or microwave for 4-8 minutes on high. Enjoy!

    Classic Chocolate Cake 

     This is probably the best and easiest moist Chocolate cake I've ever made. And the only recipe which actually   worked for me. All the others got burnt.
     Recipe credits goes to one of my coop mate (^ ^). 

    Ingredients:

    1.  1 3/4 cup flour 
    2. Sugar (2 cups)
    3. Cocoa powder - 3/4 cup ( I used a Dutch processed one)
    4. Baking soda - 1 1/2 Tsp
    5. Baking powder - 1 1/2 Tsp
    6. Salt -1/2 Tsp
    7. 2 eggs
    8. 1 cup milk
    9. 1/2 cup Vegetable oil
    10. Vanilla extract - 2 Tsp
    11. 1 cup boiling water

    Method :
    - preheat the oven to 360F / 180 C. Prepare the baking pan by applying a butter paper and set it aside. You could use 2 baking pans.

    1. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
    2. Add the milk, eggs, oil and vanilla essence to the dry ingredients and beat it until smooth using a standing mixer for about 2-3 minutes.
    3. Pour in boiling water while stirring.
    4. Pour the batter into the baking pan and bake for about 30-35 minutes.

    Keep the cake aside for cooling. You can also add chocolate syrup on top of it. It's best to poke holes using a fork and then add the syrup so that the cake would absorb it.
    Refrigerate the cake for about 2-3 hours.

     Del Delmonico Steak, Mac & Cheese, Black seedless grapes, a Purple Tiger Plum and Sangria

    First I started with wheat and rice flour noodles in boiling salted water until quite al dente, They will finish later. At the same time I started another pan with a light drizzle of E.V.O.O and tossed in some Bacon I sliced into about 2 inch pieces and let them render and blessed the piggy.
    I chopped a piece off the giant zucchini we picked today and half of a Orange bell pepper, some scallions and garlic, salt pepper, sauteed at medium heat to soften a bit then added a small handful of Gouda and one of Havarti and 1/4 cup milk, some thyme and basil from the herb garden and stirred to mix and added the noodles. I started another smaller pan for the steak. I cut a 1 pound ribeye in half and blessed the cow. I added a big drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil to the heated pan and added a couple of tablespoons of butter. While it’s sizzled I placed tonight’s half the steak in the pan, making sure I slowly placed it in the pan away from me, so I did not get splashed by the hot oil and butter. I left the steak alone, untouched for about three minutes. Then I made a big mug of sangria on the rocks.
    I stirred the noodles, lowered their heat covered them. I flipped the steak added a dollop of fresh butter and basted it for about two minutes then I turned the heat off and let it rest. I got a plate & plated the noodles then the steak and drizzled it with some of the EV00 and butter left in the steak 🥩 pan, took a picture or 3, sat down and enjoyed it!
    after dinner I had to do the dishes since it was a dinner for one last night.
    I don't want any rewards for my entry but, I would accept a cooking Badge if we make one. :-)

    Woodland Wreath Christmas Cake


    This is the picture from the recipe


    And the ingredients


    The cake is simple. Beat everything together apart from the mincemeat and the cherries. Fold them in afterwards.

    The icing is made from the butter, the amaretto and the icing sugar all just beaten together.
    So the Big Farm Ingredients : butter, flour(wheat), eggs and almonds.

    And my finished result: 



    Not quite like the original so hopefully nobody will accuse me of cheating
