My First Give-Away Ever!

I am so excited to announce that the wonderful folks at Chobani Yogurt have graciously offered to help me build my readership through a Give-Away!  They sent me a case of 12-6oz cups of their yogurt to sample and review on my blog, and have offered to send the same to our winner! 


What a generous offer, for which I am very grateful.  Here is what YOU need to do to enter:

Post a comment on THIS "First Give-Away" blog post, telling me what your favorite flavor of yogurt is...

For additional entries:

1) Go to Chobani's FaceBook page and "Like" them...take some time to learn something interesting about Chobani and then come back to this post to comment again and let me know what you learned or about a recipe you'd like to try.

2) If you have a blog, put a link to this blog post on your FaceBook Status, and then come back to this post and let me know you did it.  Here is a link for you to copy and paste:


3) Tweet or blog about this give-away, and again, come back to this post and let me know you did that.

4) Comment on this post, telling me your favortite flavors to combine or your favorite things to 'add in', such as my favorites (coconut and rum extracts to the pineapple yogurt)...I'm looking forward to this part the most...so be creative!

Unfortunately, my friends at Chobani must restrict the give-away to US residents, only.  Our winner will be chosen at random on Friday, March 4th at 9am EST.  Get busy!  I can't wait to see who gets to receive this gift from Chobani Yogurt!! 

Thanks again, Chobani!!

    I *love* Chobani! In the past, my favorite was their pomegranate. I think it's been replaced with their new black cherry flavor though. It's amazing!

    My favorite mix-in of late has been taking some of their plain nonfat yogurt and mixing in some frozen cherries and a crumbled up chocolate VitaMuffin. I mix it all together and then freeze it for about 30 minutes or so. It's my lighter take on Cold Stone's Black Forest ice cream. :)

    Yay!

    I am a recent convert to Chobani. I tried greek yogurt in the past and was unimpressed, but Chobani is so filling and delicious!

    I have yet to find the new cherry flavor locally but my current addiction is the pomegranate!

    Popped over from Danica's blog and would love to enter your giveaway. My fav yogurt is just the plain greek style (Stoneyfield brand) but I want to try the chobani more. I've only had one of theirs from Target, my local store doesn't carry them! I'll be picking more up at Target so I can try all of their flavors :)

  34. MeganFebruary 28, 2011 at 10:14 AM

    My favorite flavor is Peach. I haven't tried them all yet though, just the ones that are in the Sams club variety pack (strawberry, blueberry, peach). I wish they weren't so $$! My kids love them too so we go through them SO fast!

    I love to add just a smidge of nuts to my yogurt. Love a bit of crunch with that creaminess.

    @Maureen: The combo of nuts and cinnamon sounds so good - they are now on my list.

    @Clare - I want to try the Lemon Loaf recipe, too...but before I do that, I'm serioulsy making your combo of almond extract, fresh strawberry slices and cooked oatmeal. Great idea!

    @MiMi - so when are the cupcakes going to be ready? I may have to pay you a visit!
