As a new member to the CCC I am really happy to have the opportunity to share a recipe and introduce myself a bit more.
I am Two-Spirit and I value community and ceremony a lot. I have worked in not-for-profits and as a massage therapist for over 15 years. I volunteer and spend a lot of time invested in community. So, working with Jordan's Principle felt like the perfect fit...and it truly is! I really appreciate how much purpose this team has in having a positive impact on our Relatives. I also appreciate how supportive everyone is to one another.
I was inspired to share one of our households favorite ways to eat vegetables, because, this recipe is well liked by almost everyone we know! We love to share it as part of our commitment to mutual aid. I hope you enjoy sharing it too.
