Our Monthly Cooking Challenge is a fun way to celebrate the anti-inflammatory lifestyle that we’ve learned to know and love in this community. The concept of our Monthly Cooking Challenge is very simple. Each month, we choose a delicious, anti-inflammatory recipe. Then, you make it and email me a photo. At the end of the month, we randomly select one winner to receive a prize.
How to Join the Monthly Cooking Challenge
- Each month, we will choose one anti-inflammatory recipe. Sign up for our email list so you’ll know as soon as we share each month’s recipe.
- Make that recipe during the month.
- Send a picture of it to Aimee@AutoimmuneSisters.com by the end of the month. This month, the deadline is November 30!
- For a bonus entry, leave a comment on this month’s recipe blog post after you submit your photo.
- For another bonus entry, post your photo on Instagram, tagging @AutoimmuneSisters and #ASCookingChallenge.
November 2022 Cooking Challenge Prize
At the end of the month, we will randomly select a winner and post all of the photos below. This month, we’re giving away 2 Pampered Chef Stoneware Baking Pans – (Hint! You’ll need these for December’s Cooking Challenge). These pans are just the right size for a batch of homemade cookies, roasting vegetables with a little olive oil or just about anything you would use for a baking sheet. Because the unglazed cooking surface draws moisture away, everything cooks consistently and turns out light and crispy.

- A great source of fiber, Flaxseeds are one of nature’s richest food sources of lignans, potent antioxidants that fight free radical damage and act as phytoestrogens.
