At the Sacramento Food Bank, we use EatFresh.org recipes to coincide with the food we are giving out at our distributions. Top current recipes are three bean salad and Moroccan Carrot Salad because we have a lot of beans and carrots currently.

I sometimes make small modifications to the recipes to make them more relevant to the ingredients we have at our distributions. If the recipe calls for a fresh vegetable but we are offering it in a can, I will change the recipe to mention canned items.

A tip I would give to someone trying a new recipe is to try to substitute items for like items and make the recipe work for them.

The one I use the most often is Green Alligator Smoothie but I use apples instead of mangos. Because I have that more often. The kids like it because as long as you start by pureeing the spinach so the texture goes away the taste is hidden by all of the other good things in the smoothie.
