Miami Valley Meals Introduces Chef-Crafted Spice Blends For 3rd Anniversary

March 14, 2023 By Lisa Grigsby

Miami Valley Meals uses chef-led teams to  transforms recovered (a.k.a. “rescued”) foods into hearty and nutritious prepared meals that are then distributed to a network of nonprofit partners serving the hungry in the Miami Valley—free of charge. They currently distribute an average of 3,700 meals per week to 45+ partners per month.

These meals play a critical role in the full spectrum of services that help the underserved people in our communities. By providing our network of partner organizations with free meals, we bolster their food inventory and free up resources for their other programs, such as providing shelter, healthcare services, addiction recovery programs, and other assistance.

As part of their 3rd anniversary Miami Valley Meals has just introduced 3  chef-crafted spice blends. These blends are uniquely crafted by MVM chefs Angie, Laura, and Patricio and produced locally in partnership with Big Axe Spice.

Free of salt, sugar, and gluten, these spice blends are friendly for any diet and flexible enough to use in just about anything! From meats and marinades to dips and snacks, the possibilities are endless.

Each purchase supports our mission to transform donated food into nutritious meals for the hungry in Dayton.

The Root of Love

Chef Angie’s spice blend is specifically crafted for root vegetables, though it can double as a multi-purpose savory spice.

Try it with: roasted root vegetables, shrimp, or rice

Give Back Garlic Blast

Chef Laura’s garlic blend is a flavor explosion that will elevate any savory dish.

Try it with: burgers and ribs on the grill

Feel Good Fusion

Chef Patricio’s spice blend celebrates the best of Latin and Italian flavors, perfect for adding flair to meats, marinades, dressings, and more.

Try it with: a bit of lime juice and olive oil to create a salad dressing

Pick up a 3 pack of spices for just $27.89 online or visit us at the 2nd Street Market later this month:

About Lisa Grigsby

Lisa Grigsby is a Special Events Director with over thirty years experience in promotions, event coordination and public relations.

Owning Jokers Comedy Cafe for 20 years taught Lisa to maintain a sense of humor under pressure. She credits Leadership Dayton for exposing her to the amazing assets of the region and Clothes That Work for being her reason she stayed in Dayton. Her proudest accomplishment as a past president of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association was creating Restaurant Week, a twice a year tradition that continues to grow and benefit local charities as well. As a foodie, it's only natural that she continues to promote local restaurateurs with DaytonDining.

As a Dayton Catalyst, her desire to have ONE community calendar and advocate for the amazing assets of the region helped create the vision for the relaunch of DaytonMostMetro, now Dayton 937.com
