After-School Cooking Program

After-School Healthy Cooking Classes

These classes teach kids how to cook using a variety of recipes that employ different tools and methods. Kids build confidence and independence, while expanding their taste, preference, and familiarity with veggie filled food. They learn how to safely use a knife, cook on a stovetop, and become familiar with kitchen equipment that makes healthy eating easier, including a food processor, high speed blender, and pressure cooker. We teach the value of eating a wide variety of plant foods, like vegetables, whole grains, fruits, and legumes.
