An old idea

In times gone by we've had a People's Choice vote, so that readers could vote for their favourite recipe. Should we re-introduce this on an on-going basis?
Any comments? Suggestions?

Paper Chef #58 Roundup

Welcome back to a slightly extended Paper Chef challenge. Being the first Paper Chef challenge for quite a few months it was decided to extend the deadline for entries by a few days.
This months ingredients were selected at random, & after screening for compatibility, the chosen ones were: Bread, Chocolate, Berries & Lime.
Quite an interesting combination with lots of possibilities.
So lets see who came up with what. In no particular order we have:


Karen from Prospect: The Pantry with Chocolate Bread Pudding with Lime Custard and Strawberries


Sarah from Simply Cooked with Lime and Goji Berry Quick Bread with White Chocolate Drizzle


Jamie from Life's A Feast with Sweet Focaccia with Strawberries macerated in Lime Juice and topped with Chocolate Ganache


Jenn from Jenn Cuisine with Chocolate Berry Bread Pudding, Gluten Free


Simone from Junglefrog Cooking with Olive Oil Chocolate Mousse and Eggy Bread


Daniela from Hysteria Lane with Summer Pudding


Pille from Mani-Mani with Rye bread toasts with chocolate, strawberries and lime


Shafeena from With My Eyes Closed with Chocolate Berry Bread Pudding but with no picture of the creation


Mike from Spikey Mikeys with Chocolate French Toast with Berry syrup & Lime Cream


Alessio from Recipe Taster with Chocolate, Butter, Strawberries and an unexpected guest


Ishay from Food and the Fabulous with Dark Chocolate Creme Mille Feuille with Raspberries and Lime Zest Brittle


Ilva from Lucillian Delights with Marbled Chocolate Focaccia With Cherries and Lime Sugar


Joanne from Eats Well With Others with Blackberry Lime Bread Pudding

And one final entry from Mona at Wise Words who's entry Raspberry Bread Pudding with summer berries and lime whipped cream on a bed of chocolate sauce got lost in internet space.


So there we have our 15 16 entries. It always amazes me the no two are ever alike! This month's judging will be done my the Paper Chef hosts, but from next month the judging will be done by the previous winner.

The Ingredients! UPDATED: extended deadline!

Hope everyone is as excited as I am, its time for the first Paper Chef of the year!
As stated in an earlier post, the ingredients will be randomly selected by the host, & checked to make sure that they aren't too ridiculous of a combination. In the current list we have 103 ingredients & this list will keep growing as more are suggested.
So, time to find out what the random number generator selected for this month's challenge:

Bread
Chocolate
Berries
Lime

As its the first Challenge in awhile we'll have one of the co-hosts judge & select the winner, after that we'll revert back to having the previous month's winner as judge.
Email us (paperchef AT gmail DOT com) the link to your entry sometime before midnight your time on Tuesday June 7th  Friday 10th (just this once), or if you don't have your own blog, send us the recipe and photos they will be posted here.
Good luck & lets get creative!
