Recipes in 30 Minutes or Less FULL
Tuesday February 18, 2025 11:00am - 11:45am CST
Are you tired of eating the same thing every week? Don't have enough time to cook? Everyone is invited to share their favorite recipe for a meal that takes 30 minutes or less. Doesn't matter if it is breakfast, lunch or dinner. We could all use some time-saving meals. Participants will be asked to bring a paper copy of their favorite time-saving recipe so that others can take pictures of it. Hopefully, by the end of the session, participants will have lots of new recipes to try.

There will be a possibility of purchasing an OTC cookbook of all of the recipes.  More information on the day of the summit.
