I Can't Believe it's Not Butter!
I didn't have any help cleaning out my fridge, but I Can't Believe it's Not Butter! is going to give one of you lucky folks a $100 Grocery Gift Card, Reach Right Kit, and a disposable camera to document the transformation.
Here are some tips to get you started:

An update on our cooking contest--I am working with our sponsor and need a couple more weeks to get ready. But, here's a preview...
In May, we will be having a Lip Smackin' Healthy Food Cookoff where you can enter your very best grilling recipe! And the grand prize winner will get....you guessed it, a beautiful new grill! Yowza! We also have some amazing prize packs put together for the other two "runners-up" and I even snagged a celebrity chef for my judging panel! So, fire up those grills and start practicing while we fine-tune the details.
Disclosure: I Can't Believe it's Not Butter! provided the $100 Grocery Gift Card, Reach Right Kit, and a disposable camera for this contest. I was not compensated in any way for this post.
