Nutrition Center Recipes
At Resource Center, we believe that healthy eating should be accessible to everyone. As an LGBTQIA+ organization, our food pantry provides nutritious staples to individuals who qualify for our Ryan White program, and this recipe collection was created to help you make the most of what you have. Whether you are cooking with pantry staples or just looking for simple, satisfying meals, you will find recipes here made with ingredients you can find in our pantry.
Recipe of the Week
Easy Vermicelli Noodles
Thin rice vermicelli noodles are soaked in boiling water, drained, and steamed under a towel for 5 minutes. Carrot, green onions, shiitake mushrooms, and edamame are fried for 3 minutes, then tossed with the noodles and a peanut-soy sauce made with rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and a little sugar. Served in bowls with cilantro and chilli oil, it’s a quick, fuss-free noodle dish that can be topped with cooked pork, chicken, or beef.
