Hi everyone! You are all so good at cooking, I just know you will be able to help me. Our group at church is working with one of the grade schools in our area that has a large population of low-income families. We've taken care of warm clothing, but want to make sure the tummies of the children are full with warm food at dinner time.
My part is to put together 14 or so easy/fast recipes using inexpensive foods such as rice, beans, noodles, veggies and small amounts of meat or other protein source. Most of the parents work several part time jobs and aren't home for long recipe cooking. We are collecting crock pots and plan to hold a cooking class for 5th graders and a parent to teach them how to use them, and how to use dry beans and to cook rice instead of buying instant, etc., so some of the recipes should be able to be cooked in a crock pot.
Any suggestions you have are greatly appreciated. Thank you all, and gentle hugs. Cathy
