This collection of recipes comes from families across northwestern Minnesota who explored our Cook & Create Kits, a free Prairie Public Education Services initiative offered through local libraries, that celebrating local foods, farms, and family traditions while helping families cook and create together.

After returning their kits, families shared recipes from their own kitchens.
Now we're sharing them with you in this community collection.

We'd love to hear from all our viewers and listeners across the prairie region and keep this collection growing!
