SIMPLE MEALS

An hour-long cooking class where we make 2-3 recipes to create a simple meal from scratch.

Sample menus include:

  • Pancakes, whipped cream, and fresh berry sauce

  • Minestrone soup and biscuits

  • Pasta from scratch

  • Lettuce wraps with dipping sauce

  • Applesauce and french toast sticks

  • Wontons/dumplings and dipping sauce

  • Ramen (without the seasoning packet!)

FOOD EDUCATION + SNACK

An hour-long session that includes a food education lesson and made-from-scratch snack.

Sample options include:

  • All about fruits and vegetables and where they grow on the plant. I bring in a couple of dozen different fruits and vegetables to talk about. We make a fruit salad at the end or cut up lots of veggies to sample. Zoom option available.

  • How to read an ingredient statement: I bring in a couple of dozen familiar processed food packages and we talk about how to read ingredient statements. We make a snack to share at the end - often, we make energy bites and they're a hit!

  • Sugar Shockers! We do some hands-on lessons to learn about sugar in beverages and then we make smoothies!

Cost: $250 for up to 10 scouts, and $25 for each additional scout.

Location: We will come to your meeting space with everything needed, including all of the food and equipment! Or, we can meet virtually.
