Tyler Florence and “Top Chef” Contests

In these dire economic times, who couldn’t use a $2,500 shopping spree at Macy’s for new kitchen products?

Especially if your personal culinary guide is Tyler Florence, a member of Macy’s Culinary Council.

Through April 3, Macy’s and Food Network star Tyler Florence are hosting a contest, in which you can enter your own video showing how to prepare an original recipe. The “Macy’s Keeps America Cooking” contest was launched in conjunction with Florence’s 12-series podcasts highlighting his own favorite recipes.

Each video submitted should be 2 minutes or less, and demonstrate “What gets you cooking?”

In addition to the shopping spree, the grand prize winner will receive a trip for two to San Francisco to cook with Florence, and a feature spot on a Macy’s podcast. Nine runners-up will win a $1,000 gift card from Macy’s.

For “Top Chef” fanatics, there are just three days left to enter the ”Quaker Oats Quick Fire Challenge.”

The popular show with the multitude of product placements is asking fans to submit an original recipe using Quaker Oats, of course. Top entrants will be flown to New York to compete with one another.  The winner will get the chance to attend a future “Top Chef” episode.
