https://steemitimages.com/DQmWAGBLGuYRUNoeAfc7mYX7hbuqKyvtvtPGY4xWgrQNdYE/Thumbnail%20Winners.jpg Thank you for taking time from your busy holiday, last weekend, to enter our contest and to share with the Cook with Us community. The CwU team, (@pandamama, @offoodandart and @chefsteve), enjoyed reading all of your entries. It was so interesting to see the different types of foods that people eat while celebrating Easter and Passover around the world. We also liked reading about people's favorite Italian dishes. There were a few of our favorite Italian dishes entered this week. Before we get to this week's winners, we want to remind everyone that this week is the [cocktail challenge](https://steemit.com/cookwithus/@cookwithus/cook-with-us-5-cocktail-challenge). Feel free to enter your favorite cocktails, your original cocktail creations or mocktails (non-alcoholic drinks). OK, let's see who the winners are this week! *** https://steemitimages.com/0x0/https://steemitimages.com/DQmccYAf5JQ5Rnisw4bHKDeQVNrWtuNtpCtqgodgYy5ykwM/Banner_AndTheWinners.jpg

And The WINNER Is...

[Squid with Black Quinoa](https://steemit.com/cookwithus/@foodforsoul/cook-with-us-4-squid-with-black-quinoa) by @foodforsoul

We loved your glazed squid with black quinoa. This dish is very complex with rich and spicy flavors in the marinade/glaze that are balanced with fresh and bright counterpoints in the salad. We would be happy to have this dish as part of an Easter feast. ***

We liked your version of an Easter bread roll with the chocolate eggs. Your bread looks so light and fluffy and the addition of chocolate makes this a real treat! ***
