About this Event

Eating plant-based doesn't require complicated recipes or endless hours in the kitchen. Join Berkeley-based dietitian Ellen Alonso Street for a practical, hands-on workshop designed to make plant-based eating work with your busy schedule and budget. In this 60-minute interactive workshop, you'll learn how to prep efficiently, balance your plate with protein-rich whole foods, and create a sustainable routine that fits your life.

You will:

● Learn essential meal prep equipment and storage strategies to maximize freshness and minimize waste.

● Discover 2 simple meal planning frameworks and time-saving techniques you can implement immediately.

● Practice building balanced plant-based meals and explore high-protein recipe ideas.

● Set personalized goals tailored to your lifestyle and address common barriers holding you back.

● Take home a sample meal plan and resource handout to guide your weekly prep. Eating plant-based on a budget and a tight schedule is absolutely possible, and easier than you think! This workshop is perfect for anyone new to plant-based eating, those looking to streamline their routine, or anyone wanting to feel more confident and organized in the kitchen.
