Food for Life: Recipes and Stories on the Right to Food

    

Co-published by the Lutheran World Federation – North America, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada. It contains global recipes adapted for North American cooks plus stories of how people in the Lutheran family work together to improve lives and address root causes of poverty and hunger. Let your community come together to enjoy God’s abundance and be empowered to act in the eradication of extreme poverty and hunger both locally and globally.

Beautifully illustrated and bursting with color photos, Food for Life is great for any cook with global tastes! The book contains four fascinating chapters:

• The Agricultural Cycle: dishes for growing, planting, harvesting and “hungry” seasons
• The Religious Cycle: dishes for Christian, Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist religious celebrations and feasts or fasting times
• The Life Cycle: dishes for births and birthdays, weddings and funerals, and other festive occasions and family celebrations
• Daily Life: dishes that families eat (and drink) for breakfast, main meals, and snacks or desserts

Recipes have been tested and adapted for cooks from other countries.
