Veena Prasad, Net Impact member and founder of Veena’s Market will host the next Book Club discussion. Veena’s Market creates recipe kits that allow you to cook your own authentic Indian food. The kits include all the specialty ingredients such as spices in just the quantities you need and a recipe that really works. The focus currently is on Indian recipes but Moroccan and Ethiopian kits are on the way.

Dinner will feature dishes made using the recipe kits and Veena will have sample spice blends for those who attend!
