Food Partners around The World: Operation Blessing And You
At Operation Blessing, we’re big advocates of healthful cooking and eating. In fact, thanks to our generous partners, we’re able to offer school nutrition programs, agriculture initiatives, food distributions and more around the world. We’ve even provided lessons in nutritional cooking for moms in Mexico and other countries.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., friends like you help supply free groceries for struggling Americans through our Hunger Strike Force. We thought it would be fun to collect some light, summery recipes from our offices around the world to spice up your summer a little. These recipes come to us by way of our staff, volunteers, and partners.
Your partnership, support, and generosity are touching lives throughout Latin America, Africa, Asia, and Europe. Many families that were once lacking basic nutrition now have hunger relief. Many mothers once facing food insecurity in foreign lands now have new businesses, capital and equipment for microenterprises to provide for their families. The one common ingredient in all these stories, was your support.
We hope you enjoy this delicious—and for the most part nutritious—international recipe collection. We begin with starters and sides, move through some main courses, and end with two light, nutrient-rich desserts.
Summer Recipes: Travel around the World through Authentic International Meals
Your summer travel plans may not include a trip around the world. However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy authentic cuisines from across the globe. Throughout the year you have faithfully supported our efforts to feed people who are in need.
Now we’d like to say thank you with authentic summer recipes from their corners of the world. Your efforts span multiple continents. What better way to show our appreciation of you, our generous partners, than with the actual fruits of those labors. These fruits are coming in the form of recipes from our grateful friends and family around the world.
The recipes come from actual offices that Operation Blessing works in to provide hunger relief and prevent food insecurity. They come from the villages that have relied on you so desperately for food, training, and opportunities to create businesses to support their families.
