We're putting forth an open call for submissions! Weight Watchers® Smart Ones® and TwitterMoms are looking for great writers to share 10 ways of making your favorite foods healthier, and up to 50 qualified participants will receive a $50 Amazon.com gift card!

We're looking for quality over speed, so please read on.

Do you crave cheesy nachos, but you don’t want the cheese to go straight to your hips? Do you love to bite into a slice of deep dish pizza but worry about all the fat? Is chocolate cake your weakness? Tell us about all your favorite sinful foods you love and how you can re-create them to be lighter and healthier in a thoughtful, original post of at least 400 words.

How it works:

We are looking for creative, original and authentic submissions of high quality. Create an original post on your blog, in 400 words or more (using your own words), sharing 10 ways of making your favorite foods healthier. Include a thoughtful introduction, original content within the body of your post, and a conclusion. Check your spelling and your grammar. You must also include the disclosure statement below in your post and install the campaign widget in the sidebar of your blog. Then follow the rest of the requirements below. We will review each and every post and select up to 50 qualifying submissions to receive a $50 Amazon.com gift card!

The blogging program starts on September 2, 2010 and the submission window closes at 11:59pm PST on October 1, 2010. We will contact the qualifying bloggers on or about October 7, 2010. Full terms and conditions are posted for your review here.
