Feel curious about plant-based proteins but don't know where to start? This is the class for you!
About this Event

Discover the world of plant-based proteins ! You don't have to be vegan or vegetarian to reap the benefits of eating more vegetables, in fact, research shows that adding some plant-based proteins to your regular diet is an easy way to increase your fiber, antioxidants, and all kinds of other heart-healthy nutrients. And we'll teach you how to make it delicious, too!

Sample Menu*:

  • Curried Pumpkin and Lentil Stew
  • Ginger Sesame Baked Tofu
  • Tofu Chocolate Mousse

* This is a sample menu based on the menu of a previous class. The menu is subject to change based on what is in season/available and the instructor's preference.


Skills taught:

  • Seasoning a soup
  • How to work with tofu
  • Discussion on what is meant by "plant-based proteins"


Allergens:

There is wheat and dairy in the recipes for the class, which may be able to be substituted with enough advanced notice. Please let us know ASAP if you have a gluten, dairy, or any other food allergies.


Additional Information:

  • Class fee of $60.00 per participant includes lunch of all dishes made.
  • Participants must be 18 years of age or older to participate. Please see our for youth-appropriate classes.
