They’re here to talk about the upcoming Third Annual Casserole competition at the Iowa State Fair on Sunday, August 20th.

Entries must cost $5 or less per serving, be prepared in 60 or fewer minutes and include at least one ingredient from each of six categories: starch, sauce, protein, vegetables, toppings, and seasonings.
This competition will be held at the Elwell Family Food Center at 11 Am. There will be fun banter and giveaways throughout the judging process. The contest offers the biggest prize of the fair: $1000 for first place; $500 for second place and $250 for third.
