Virtual Health-Focused Cooking Demo: A New Year, A New You: Superfoods

The New Year is a great opportunity to start making more mindful and intentional decisions on how to best nourish your body and make long term, healthy lifestyle goals. Join us for virtual health-focused cooking demonstrations every Monday in January where we will dedicate time to lecture, cooking techniques, and Q&A taught by Chopping Block chef and nutritionist, JC White! With pre-planning tips and basic techniques, we will give you the tools and knowhow needed to create filling and delicious meals designed to support the best nutritional practices. 

Today's class will focus on Superfoods:

Superfoods are whole, natural foods such as vegetables, beans, nuts, whole grains and lean protein that contain vitamins, minerals and antioxidants our bodies need. We'll teach you how to make mouth-watering, customizable recipes you can feel good about eating while benefiting your health.

Menu:

• Shakshuka (Eggs Poached in Spiced Tomato-Pepper Sauce with Feta Cheese) 
• Warm Roasted Carrot and Chickpea Salad with Greek Yogurt

Skills covered in class:

• Identifying superfoods
• Preparing tomato sauce
• Poaching eggs
• Balancing flavors
• Roasting root vegetables
• Working with fresh herbs and spices

Our Virtual Cooking Demonstrations, via Zoom, are a fun opportunity to watch your chef in action. During class, your chef will teach you how to prepare the dishes while you observe and take notes. Our Zoom moderator will make sure your questions submitted through the chat option are answered during or after class. The recipe packet will be provided upon registration. Please note that some recipe steps may be prepared ahead due to the length of the class.
