We've had a series of really great events this season, and if you haven't made it here, stay tuned for videos soon. But in the meantime I thought it would be nice to share something from the really great potluck dinners we've had before some of the events. 

The latest hit was a Tunisian Vegetable Stew brought by volunteer coordinator and superstar Nancy. She was kind enough to email the recipe around — and now here it is for everyone to enjoy.

Thanks Nancy!

(For more delicious foods, why not participate in our next potluck? Watch our facebook page and event pages on this site for updates about when potlucks will be happening.)
