Sublime Announces First Winner of Broward High School Recipe Contest

Sublime has announced the first winner of the It's Vegalicious! recipe contest for Broward High School students. Student Jack Naidus, of West Broward High School, has won the soup category with his recipe for Savory Spinach and Chickpea Soup.

Sublime will present the cash prize of $1,000 to the student, as well as another $1,000 to West Broward High School, on Sunday, October 18 at 5:30 p.m., during an award ceremony at Sublime Restaurant. Additionally, the soup will be added to Sublime's menu and named after the winning student.

The It's Vegalicious contest, officially approved by the School Board of Broward County for the 2009-2010 school year, is open to all Broward High School Students. Students may submit their 100% vegan recipes, for 4-6 servings, under the five remaining categories by the following deadlines: Salad - 11/15/09; Pizza - 1/15/10; Pasta - 3/1/10; Entree - 4/1/10; and Dessert - 5/1/10.

Winning dishes will be chosen based on their creativity and "vegalicious" factor. Sublime will reward $1,000 each to the winning student per category and to their respective school. Each winning dish will be added to Sublime's menu and named after the student. (For complete contest guidelines, students should contact their principal's office.)

"Sublime is delighted to be able to create awareness among students of plant-based foods and healthy eating habits, as well as inspiring creativity and entrepreneurship, through the It's Vegalicious recipe contest" says Sublime owner Nanci Alexander. "Congratulations to Jack Naidus and West Broward High School for a truly sublime recipe!"
