Join the November Shine Supper Club with Your Best One-pot Meal!

I don't even host Thanksgiving, but flipping the calendar to November is enough to give me anxiety. This is the time of year when it's hard not to succumb to the flurry of busyness (parties! holidays! baking 'round the clock!). Deep breath. In an effort to stay zen for as long as humanly possible, we're streamlining dinner even more than usual. We're asking all home cooks and Shine readers to share your favorite one-dish dinner. Think casseroles, stews, and skillet suppers. Best yet: you could win an iconic red Dansk Kobenstyle 4-quart casserole from Crate and Barrel for all your future one-pot meals. Here's how to join us:

1. Write a blog post, on Shine or elsewhere, telling us about your favorite pasta recipe by Sunday 11:59PM PST, November 25th. Be sure to include a photo and a recipe.
2. Mention and link to the Shine Supper Club in your post: http://shine.yahoo.com/supper-club/
3. Tweet @YahooShine with a link to your post and include the hashtag #shinesupperclub. Aren't on Twitter? Email the link to shine_sarahmccoll@yahoo.com. We will compile the links for all participants to include in their posts so all Supper Club members can share in the link love.
4. The community will vote on the winning recipe to be featured on the Shine homepage and added to our winner's circle!
5. The winner scores a gorgeous red 4-quard Dansk Kobenstyle casserole from Crate and Barrel!

No purchase is necessary to participate, and the giveaway is open to U.S. residents who are 18 or older. The full rules for the giveaway can be found here.
