Lamb Is For Lovers This February

DENVER — This February, the American Lamb Board is calling all lamb lovers to heat up the kitchen with the launch of www.LambLoversMonth.com. Whether fans of lamb are on the hunt for lambtastic recipes, want to taste chefs' best lamb dishes, watch Chef Tim Love cook up swoon-worthy bites or share their own, this new website is a one stop shop for the love of lamb.

From February 1 – 28, lamb lovers can submit their own tried-and-true dishes to the American Lamb Board's "Recipes for Romance" contest. The most heart-warming recipe will win a lambtastic monthly date night dinner package that includes four different dinners that each feature a ewe-nique cut of American Lamb and bottle of wine for two. Every fan of lamb that submits a recipe will receive a Lamb Lovers apron.

Twosomes can submit their swoon-worthy recipes along with a short 200 – 300 word essay about why they love lamb by:
