Help a Girl Scout out

In this case, you get to help two organizations. Emily Elliott, a senior at South Mecklenburg High School, is working on her Girl Scout Gold Award by creating a cookbook for the new Ronald McDonald House in Charlotte.

She needs recipes that fit these categories:
- Practical, cost-effective nutritious meals that can serve 70.
- Recipes that are easy for volunteers to prepare.
- Recipes that will fit vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dietary options.

Have a good recipe that meets any of those descriptions? Email them to me at kpurvis@charlotteobserver.com and I'll forward them to Emily for her project.
