CHARLOTTE, N.C. - If you love to cook and want to be a star, Harris Teeter is giving you a chance to shine during the Harris Teeter Brands Holiday Video Challenge. Participants have the chance to win $2,500 cash or $500 in Harris Teeter gift cards and be featured on harristeeter.com.
What do you need to do to enter? Participants must produce a video of themselves making their favorite holiday recipe. Have fun, be creative and, most importantly, use Harris Teeter Brand products in your recipe. While you are cooking, we also want you to tell us why you prefer Harris Teeter Brand versus national brand products.
If you do not have a favorite holiday recipe but want to enter the contest, do not worry. Click on the Chef Phil recipe link at the top of the Harris Teeter Brand Holiday Video Challenge website and choose from eight of his holiday favorite recipes including entrées, sides, and desserts. Of course, contestants are encouraged to add their own flavor to Chef Phil’s recipe and to use Harris Teeter Brand products.
