The Unbridled Gourmet

The Adult Rider Committee (ARC) of VADA/NOVA requests your participation and assistance to provide recipes for a cookbook that will raise funds both for ARC activities as well as to benefit the Northern Virginia Therapeutic Riding Program, (NVTRP). The ARC is open to VADA/NOVA members and its activities include organizing riding camps and clinics. NVTRP is an accredited non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization and for the last 26 years has brought the experience of horseback riding to children and adults with disabilities in Fairfax County.

Members and volunteers from both organizations are contributing favorite recipes for the cookbook. It will be published as a hard bound 3 ring binder edition and it will be beautifully illustrated by a talented NVTRP volunteer. Once it is published, it will be available for sale at shows, clinics, at NVTRP events and through direct sales to members, friends and anyone interested in a collection of great recipes.

Recipe categories include:

Appetizers & Beverages	Breads & Rolls
Soups & Salads	Desserts
Vegetables & Side Dishes	Cookies & Candy
Main Dishes	Horse & Dog Recipes and Remedies

Please submit 2-3 of your favorite recipes so you can be represented in our memorable collection. Your name will be printed with each of your recipes. Please include your affiliation with either or both organizations as well. Each cookbook will contain helpful cooking hints, recipe category dividers, a table of contents, an index, and special pages of interest to our horse-loving communities. The cookbook will be typeset in an easy to read format and professionally printed and bound.

You may download one of the recipe collection forms, fill it out either on the computer or manually and send it in.

You may also follow the instruction sheet here and either type or hand write your recipes without using the collection forms.

The recipe submission deadline is May 1, 2007.

The easiest way to submit a recipe is to email it to Kathy Mathers at ddmandkom@verizon.net If you are submitting a hand written recipe or one that is on paper, you can mail it to Kathy Mathers, 10225 Chinkapin Dr., Manassas, VA 20111.
