Save the Children’s Recipe Challenge eBook

Back in March, along with many other food bloggers, I entered my recipe for Roast Vegetable Lasagne into the Save the Children Recipe Challenge organised by Ruth Clemens at The Pink Whisk.

The aim of the challenge was to raise awareness of Save the Children’s Race Against Hunger campaign. It is a shocking fact that we live in a world with enough food for everyone, yet hunger is still able to kill 7,000 children every day.  Save the Children is calling on governments to put an end to this hidden hunger.

All the recipes gathered have been collated and published in a beautiful Save the Children Recipe Challenge e-book, which is available online for an optional donation of £2 to raise awareness and funds for the campaign. I am absolutely thrilled to have a recipe included in this wonderful collection.

Please, please, please visit the Save the Children website to download a copy, and make a small donation if you can. The book features mouthwatering mains, such as Easy Braised Lamb Shank, Guacamole Bean Salad and Easy Baked Chicken Biryani, plus lots of tempting cakes and puds like Raspberry and Almond Mini Macaroons and Fresh Orange Cake with Citrus Buttercream.

Over the next two years Save the Children aim to help at least two million children get the kind of healthy food they need to grow up strong and healthy. The kind of food we’d all expect for our own kids.

But they can’t do it alone. Add your voice to the Race Against Hunger campaign and with your help they will:

  • persuade governments to invest in getting help to the children and families who need it
  • encourage companies to make sure millions more children get food fortified with the right vitamins – just like our breakfast cereals
  • give poor mothers vouchers or money so they can buy the food they need before things get desperate – a form of aid that stimulates local markets so they can keep on supplying local communities for the long term.

Together we can give children a life free from hunger.

  1. GREAT post Vanesther and I plan to post something about this lovely little eBook – along with the Macmillan Tea Time Treats book too, as they are BOTH GREAT causes! I LOVED your recipe for the roast vegetable lasagne! Karen

  2. I’m just about to download the eBook – such a worthy cause. I remember Ruth talking about this on her site a few months ago. Congratulations on getting your recipe in the book!
