Even as we’re practicing social distancing, we continue to see great examples of how life happens around food. Instead of the corporate lunches, we’re seeing teams enjoy video conference lunches; instead of big dinner parties, families are having home-cooked meals together; and instead of packing bars at happy hours, friends are toasting each other virtually.

With more people cooking at home, we’re collecting recipes from our Great Performances’ team members, families, friends and partners to share with you and provide some inspiration for delicious dishes you can make at home. Share your recipes and photos with us: tag us on social media #gpcovidcooking, direct message @gpfood or email marketing@greatperformances.com.

SWEET POTATO RAGOUT

Serves 4

This delicious, vegan dish is versatile, easy to make and keeps well. You can add any other vegetables you have in your fridge or pantry, like peppers and mushrooms. Make enough for leftovers and it’s great to have on hand for a quick lunch while busy putting out Coronavirus fires.
