COME FOR THE FOOD, STAY FOR THE FRIENDSHIP
Join us for a cooking class designed with you in mind. Cooking for one can feel overwhelming or uninspiring—but you don’t have to do it alone. In this relaxed and friendly setting, we’ll explore simple, delicious meals tailored for one person, with a focus on nutrition, creativity, and ease.
Each month you’ll walk away with recipes, practical tips, and the confidence to make cooking for one easier and more enjoyable. Best of all, you’ll share laughs, tips, and conversation with others who understand the challenges—and the joys—of cooking solo.
We’ll learn how to take one bulk-cooked item and turn it into several delicious meals throughout the week. Instead of eating the same leftovers day after day, you’ll discover creative ways to transform a single base recipe into multiple dishes, keeping mealtime exciting and simple.
Menu for the class. Please keep in mind that menus may change based on availability, quality, and the time of year.
