Announcing the Holiday Bucket List

Announcing the Holiday Bucket List

Introducing the Pinch of Yum Holiday Bucket List! Sprinkle of a bit of holiday joy into your season by making some really cozy recipes and entering yourself to win fun prizes!

Announcing… The Holiday Bucket List!

Most of my holiday traditions are based around Christmas, so in my family we are entering an incredibly tradition-rich, nostalgic, and charming time of year – familiar holiday music, the warm cozy glow of candles, the faces of people we love, babies in Christmas jammies (omg), twinkly lights on the frosted trees outside. And maybe best of all, the house is filled with the warm smells of classic recipes that make their appearance just a few times each year.

So this season we’re channeling all of the holiday food magic of the holidays into something brand new – the Pinch of Yum Holiday Bucket List!

Info For This Holiday Bucket List

What Is The Holiday Bucket List?

The Pinch of Yum Holiday Bucket List is a list of 8 of my favorite recipes that I consider must-makes for the holidays! They are fun, cozy, and special recipes that are annual traditions in my house.

Here’s how it works:

  • You make any of these recipes.
  • You enter to win prizes.

You can make one recipe and enter for an individual prize.

OR you can complete the entire bucket list (all 8 recipes) and be entered for our grand prize of $1,000 cash.

You can also print off our Holiday Bucket List PDF to hang on your fridge or look at somewhere in your home, because wow! She’s super cute!

Other Important Details

What if I want to make dietary modifications to a recipe?

That’s great! Everybody likes and needs different things when it comes to food. Make your subs and swaps, no problem! Send us the photo like usual, and if you leave a review it’s super helpful if you note what you changed about the recipe (used plant-based protein instead of ground beef, for example) in case others might want to do the same!

Can I share my recipe photo multiple times for more entries?

The only way to get a bonus entry is to leave a review on the recipe itself! As long as you use the same email address for both entries, that will count as two entries.

I would LOVE to see your recipe photos on Instagram as well – if you tag @pinchofyum I should be able to find them!

Can I enter the individual giveaways and the grand prize?

Yes!

How old do I have to be to participate?

To be entered to win a prize, you will need to be 18 years or older.

Do I need to live in the U.S. to win?

Individual prizes are limited to U.S. residents. The grand prize can be won by anyone worldwide.

How will winners be chosen?

By emailing your completed recipe image to us, you are entered to win the prize associated with that recipe. A bonus entry is counted when you leave a rating for the recipe on the blog.

Winners will be selected at random from individual recipe entries (combining email entries with rating entries).

Can I win multiple prizes?

You can enter them all! One prize per winner is allowed.

One prize per recipe and one grand prize will be awarded.

If your name is selected for a prize, a member of our team will contact you on December 21st through the email address used for your entry.

Individual prizes will be shipped to the selected winners (based in the US), and the grand prize cash will be delivered via PayPal.

I’m so excited for this season and so excited to get some of these tried-and-true recipes rolling in my kitchen (and in yours)!
