Food for Thought's mission is to create a healthy environment by showing our community members easy, low cost, and fun recipes the whole family will enjoy preparing together.  Eating a well balanced meal nourishes our bodies and make us feel good. Our goal is to utilize a variety of fruits and vegetable recipes to make cooking easy to incorporate into our daily lives. All of our recipes abide by the USDA guidelines for nutrition. Like any recipe, you can modify them to meet your taste preferences and we encourage you to do so.
Food For Thought encourages receiving emergency food from a food bank, pantry, soup kitchen or shelter if you are struggling to put food on the table. A list below has the locations of emergency food services here in La Paz County.
  • Parker Food Bank - 1124 Geronimo Ave Parker AZ 85344
