Greetings #plantbased chefs, @JustinParke here with a new Plant Power Cooking Challenge. Although the Plant Power Cooking Challenge is the brainchild of @RiverFlows, our fearless leader is a busy one, so I will be spearheading this challenge from here on out.

Each Thursday I'll post a list of ingredients that you can use in any combination to make your recipe submission, and I'll also share the link within the Plant Power curation posted every Thursday via the main @NaturalMedicine account.

I was quite impressed with the amount of entries submitted by you lovely talented chefs, and I made sure to read each and every one of your recipes. It's never easy choosing a winner, but I forced myself into narrowing down the choices to three gems.
