Healthy Cooking Classes
Medical research overwhelmingly supports healthy eating as one of the most important choices a person can make to live a longer and healthier life. Eating a healthful diet of whole foods may lower the risk of developing many chronic, debilitating health problems such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, digestive disorders, Alzheimer's disease and some types of cancer. Decreasing the use of pre-packaged, processed and refined foods high in sweeteners, sodium, saturated and trans fat, artificial ingredients and preservatives has been shown to have significant health benefits. Our classes focus on teaching easy and delicious meal and snack preparation based on vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans, nuts, fish, low-fat dairy, lean meat and beneficial fats. We'll share tips for saving time, cutting costs and having fun making tasty, healthy food that you and your family will love!
All classes, except Knife Skills, are cooking demonstrations with generous tastings of each recipe.
Lower Price - all classes are $25*.
