			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The World Community Cookbooks, as I know them, consist of <a href="http://secure.mcc.org/mccstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=6_1_13&amp;products_id=1">More-with-Less</a>, <a href="http://secure.mcc.org/mccstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=6_1_13&amp;products_id=12">Extending the Table&#8230;</a>, and <a href="http://secure.mcc.org/mccstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=6_1_13&amp;products_id=570">Simple in Season</a>.  They were commissioned by the <a href="http://mcc.org/">Mennonite Central Committee</a>, &#8220;in response to world food needs&#8221;, &#8220;to promote global understanding and celebrate the variety of world cultures&#8221;, and &#8220;to promote the understanding of how the food choices we make affect our lives and the lives of those who produce the food&#8221;, respectively.  Though these goals are laudable and I believe in the work the MCC does, I look to them primarily as excellent cookbooks.</p>
<p>Though the overall tone and recipes of each book varies, the underlying themes of each is to provide high quality, wholesome foods, with simple readily available ingredients.  Grab a book, flip to a page, and you can probably find something there that you can make right now. For a family always on the go or if you are a few days late getting to the grocery store due to a busy schedule, this can be a godsend.  With but a bit of planning around a few go-to recipes, you can always have the option for a quick, hot, home cooked meal.</p>
<p>Many of the recipes are also vegetarian friendly if you so desire, though <a href="http://www.vegan.org/">vegans</a> will probably want to look elsewhere.  This is important as my family and I look at eating less meat.  Even if you are not looking to do as we are, they are worth a look.  Individually these books are priced at <a href="http://secure.mcc.org/mccstore/index.php?main_page=index&amp;cPath=6_1_13">$24.99 for the spiral bound editions</a>, <a href="http://secure.mcc.org/mccstore/index.php?main_page=index&amp;cPath=6_1_13">a few dollars less for the paperback</a>, or you can get a <a href="http://secure.mcc.org/mccstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=6_1_13&amp;products_id=15">boxed set of all three spiral bound for $55.99</a>.  If you buy through those links you will be directly supporting the MCC and their mission of food and relief.</p>
<p>Be safe and eat well.</p>
