Our friends at Food52.com are holding a recipe contest! Read on for details.

As cooks, we have to be resourceful -- making ingredients last, stocking up wisely, and making our own versions of what others buy is all part of the routine. Now it's time to hone those skills: we want to see your best recipes that serve a crowd on the cheap. Think beyond the one-pot wonders and crock of beans (though all are welcome), and get creative! 

The winner of this contest will receive a $200 Whole Foods Market gift card, and the runner up will receive a $100 Whole Foods Market gift card. The contest will open on Monday, February 25th at 10:00am EST and will close on Tuesday, March 12th at 6:00pm EST. 

Interested? You can enter the contest on the Food52 site right here.
