Some weeks I have ideas for blog posts coming out of my ears. The creative juices are flowing at full speed, and I can’t seem to get my fingers to type as fast as my brain is working. I love those weeks!
On the other hand, there are many weeks when I experience major writer’s block. I browse the Internet, Pinterest, and my own collection of cookbooks and just can’t seem to find any inspiration for a new recipe or post idea. Those are the days when blogging feels forced instead of fun.

Thankfully ConAgra has an awesome online resource tailored specifically for bloggers! The Dish offers recipes, content ideas, advice from food experts, and the latest promotions and products from ConAgra foods.

What a novel idea! It’s refreshing to visit The Dish and find all of the tasty inspiration that I need to write a blog post. The Dish has four areas for bloggers to explore: Seasonal Spotlight, Recipe Resources, Ask Our Team, and First Look, First Taste.
In the First Look, First Taste section, bloggers get inside knowledge of the latest promotions and products from ConAgra Foods. You must become a member of The Dish in order to be privy to this info, and it’s completely free to sign up! All you need is a blog url. Click here to sign up.
In addition to getting content inspiration from The Dish, you can also find inspiration for dinner. The Recipe Resources section is overflowing with delicious and seasonal recipe ideas. The What to Cook series of posts offers great information about which produce is fresh each month of the year. Did you know that eggplant is at its peak in July? I recently tried these Crispy Fish Filets and they couldn’t have been easier or tastier!

I’ve already bookmarked these Mexican Pizzas for my football parties in the fall. There are many wonderful recipes and cooking tips available on the site. The Dish is overflowing with helpful information for food bloggers! If you are in need of recipe ideas, blog business sense, or you just want to sample some delicious ConAgra products, be sure to stop by the site.
And don’t forget to sign up for First Taste, First Look where you can hear about the latest ConAgra promotions and request free samples to review on your blog.

I took a look at the Conagra site and I learned about a new site, thanks! I think my favorite part of The Dish is the Seasonal Spotlight. Right off the bat they had an article about ways to spend your Labor Day weekend and now I have some great ideas.
