Contest: Looks Sweet, Eats Savory

Yesterday's Caramelized Pear "Cupcakes" With Blue Cheese Frosting got me thinking that it would be fun to see what other playful stuff folks might make in this genre of food that looks like a sweet but eats like a savory. Let's have a contest! Here are the rules:

  • Write up your entry and post it on your blog, or if you don't have a blog you can email it to me at the address below. A formal recipe isn't required, we'll settle for a picture and a description. Please link back to this entry in your post.
  • Email me at herbivoracious@gmail.com with Savory in the subject line:
    - the url of your post
    - the name of your dish
    - your name
    - your geographic location
  • Also, please put a comment on this post linking to your post so we can all see it sooner!
  • Deadline is Sunday, September 16th and I hope to post the roundup within a few days after that (depending a bit on how much fun we are having in Rome.)

Also, special thanks to Veggie Chic for hosting the latest Carnival!
