About the Neighborhood to Nation Contest
The Neighborhood to Nation Recipe Contest is an annual contest, open to foodservice operators, chefs and line cooks who develop recipes for menu items served at independent, commercial restaurants or food trucks.
Recipes for the Neighborhood to Nation Recipes Contest were judged based on taste, appearance, creativity and foodservice viability. The contest was created back in 2015 to inspire culinary creativity among independent restaurants and food trucks, giving operators an opportunity to experiment with high-quality and consistent products from General Mills Foodservice as well as access to trend information, insights and ideas to help them differentiate their menus and delight their diners.
