Here is a message from Kath:
Greetings Relayers! Who is excited to eat real food?! My recipe style is simple ingredients mixed together in creative and unique ways to create healthy meals ready in minutes. These recipes range from filling morning oatmeal to a protein-packed salad to a simple stew flavored with local pork. Give the Dough Boy Smoothie a try for a new twist on a blended breakfast! Enjoy. – Kath

- Whipped Banana Oatmeal - Charlottesville, Richmond, DC/NOVA/Baltimore
The whipped method produces a really creamy bowl of oats. The bananas basically disappear, so there are no chunks. Since banana is an emulsifier of sorts, this method suspends the oats into a thick, creamy consistency and the whole bowl is sweeter because the banana’s sweetness permeates throughout. This one is a Relay staff favorite!
- Cajun Delight - Charlottesville, Richmond
The best thing about this recipe is the versatility of the ingredients. You can use fresh summertime okra, tomatoes, corn, zucchini, beans and shrimp OR you can use all frozen in the winter with canned stewed tomatoes and frozen shrimp and veggies. For the “grits” use real grits, brown rice or millet.
- Pork and Bean Stew - Charlottesville, Richmond, DC/NOVA/Baltimore
This bean and ham soup is thick and creamy. You can use any kind of meat you like or leave it out for a vegetarian bean soup.
- Super Salmon Salad - Charlottesville, Richmond, DC/NOVA/Baltimore
This salad is incredibly easy to throw together. Simply cook the wheat berries ahead of time to make the process even faster!
- Dough Boy Smoothie - Charlottesville, Richmond, DC/NOVA/Baltimore
Soaking the ingredients for this smoothie overnight make it incredibly doughy and super filling.
