Primal Blueprint Reader-Created Cookbook Contest

grok recipe book

Enter your best Primal Blueprint recipes for your chance to win prizes and be featured in the Reader-Created Cookbook.

The current theme: Primal Pork Recipes

How it Works:

Send in your favorite Primal Blueprint recipe that corresponds with the current theme (see above). (Please make the subject of the email “Cookbook Contest”.)

The Worker Bees and I will pick our favorite recipes. We’ll then prepare our choices, photograph them and publish them on Mark’s Daily Apple.

If your recipe is featured on Mark’s Daily Apple it will also be published in the “Reader-Created Primal Blueprint Cookbook”.

The theme will change periodically so check back for a new opportunity to participate. (You can enter one recipe per theme.)

Example:

The recipe needs to contain an ingredient list and directions. Any additional commentary isn’t necessary, but is appreciated.

Check out the Recipes category for examples.

The Prize:

The prize is fivefold:

  1. You and your recipe will be featured on Mark’s Daily Apple. (If you have a website this means a link to your website, too.)
  2. You and your recipe will be featured in the “Reader-Created Primal Blueprint Cookbook”.
  3. You will receive a free copy of the cookbook once it is complete.
  4. You will receive a Grok On! T-shirt.
  5. You will be entered to win a Primal prize package worth over $1000. (We’re still working on the ultimate Primal prize package, but we promise to make it worth your while. Think kitchen gear, Primal supplements, gift certificates for mail order Primal food items and maybe even cash. We’ll be ironing out all the details, so periodically check this page for updates.)

Choosing a Winner:

The Worker Bees and I will pick our favorite recipes. If your recipe is picked you will receive a t-shirt immediately, the book upon its completion and will be entered in the random drawing for the Primal prize package. The random drawing will take place upon the completion of the book.

The Fine Print:

  • The recipe needs to be an original recipe made for the purposes of this contest.
  • Only one recipe entered per person per theme is allowed. There is no limit to the number of recipe themes one participates in.
  • Your recipe needs to correspond with the current theme. (For example, if the current theme is “Your best fish recipe”, your recipe needs to feature fish.) The theme will change when a sufficient number of recipes has been submitted.
  • All rights to the original recipe you submit will be forfeited to Primal Nutrition, Inc.
  • We reserve the right the change, edit or otherwise alter the recipe, its ingredients and the method for its publication on Mark’s Daily Apple and in the Reader-Created Primal Blueprint Cookbook.
  • We reserve the right to not include any recipe published on Mark’s Daily Apple in the Reader-Created Primal Blueprint Cookbook. Regardless of The Prize terms we reserve the right to make all final editorial decisions regarding what ultimately makes it into the Reader-Created Primal Blueprint Cookbook.
  • No payment in exchange for the recipes will be made.
  • We reserve the right to publish, charge a fee for and distribute the Reader-Created Primal Blueprint Cookbook in any way we see fit.
  • Only one t-shirt and one copy of the book will be given to each contestant regardless of how many recipes are submitted and included in the cookbook. Rather each new recipe submitted and included in the cookbook will count as an additional entry for the grand prize giveaway.
