Join us for a fun and flavorful cooking class where we'll celebrate summer with a rainbow salad brimming with antioxidant-rich veggies and bake a pie bursting with blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries, nestled in a nutty pecan-sunflower seed crust.
In this class, you'll:
Explore the power of "eating the rainbow" as you select and chop vibrant fruit and veggies like red beets, orange peppers, blueberries, and purple cabbage and learn easy dressing techniques to enhance the flavors.
Bake a berry pie: From a crunchy, pecan-sunflower seed crust to a bursting berry filling, you'll master the art of this summery dessert. We'll explore the nutritional powerhouse of berries and their role in promoting well-being.
Dive into the science behind oxidative stress and how antioxidant-rich foods like those we'll use can help counteract this aging pathway and prolong cellular lifespan.
Find mindfulness in the kitchen with the "rainbow of senses" technique (5-4-3-2-1) to practice mindfulness in the present moment, connecting with your surroundings and enhancing your overall wellness.
Get ready to taste the rainbow and learn how colorful food fuels a longer, healthier life!
