Potluck + Two Plant-Based Warriors with Secret Weapons to Share!

Enjoy an evening learning about the innovative food exploits of the wife and daughter of the internationally acclaimed Cleveland Clinic doctor (Caldwell Esselstyn, Jr.).

As pioneers and warriors (since the '80s) in the whole food plant-based (WFPB) movement, Ann and Jane Esselstyn have charted a culinary course designed to support Dr. Esselstyn's research into heart disease and food as medicine. Ann and Jane’s energies and enthusiasm will take your food fantasies to the next level.

Presenter, Sandi Rechenmacher, will introduce you to Ann and Jane’s wisdom and whimsy via their book (equally enjoyed by men), sharing book highlights and food prep tips to make eating whole food plant-based (WFPB) waaay doable as we "Live Fierce, Stay Bold, Eat Delicious."

....thunder, thunder, rumble, rumble!

This evening will begin with a whole food, plant-based (WFPB) potluck. Please bring a dish to share that is made exclusively from whole plant ingredients and is free of added oil. Please avoid bringing dishes containing meat, dairy, fish, eggs, or other animal-derived ingredients.
