The website Food52.com and Whole Foods Market have teamed up to create the ultimate summer cooking assignment. If you have a certain special recipe using one of their weekly challenge ingredients then you can submit it for a chance to win a $100 gift certificate to Whole Foods Market. Submit your ground beef burgers recipes by July 26 and heirloom tomatoes recipes by July 30.

It doesn’t matter whether the dish is an appetizer, salad, entrée or dessert, but it can’t include hydrogenated fats, artificial colors, flavors, preservatives or sweeteners. The winner will be selected by a vote of the website’s members and the grand-prize winner will receive a $1,000 gift card to Whole Foods Market. Check in after Aug. 11 to see which mixes outdid the others, and vote for the best 2010 summer recipe.
