Do you enjoy watching expert cooks demonstrate how to make beautiful meals? Well, this is not that workshop! Welcome to the RSS Cooking Club, where we'll prove that anyone, regardless of their kitchen experience, can create delicious and nutritious meals...we hope!
In this workshop, non-cook Communications & Marketing Director Margie Schustack will show you how not to starve by making a simple but basic meal while Programs Specialist Barbara Denson cooks alongside her and shows you how to take that same meal up a notch. RSS Dietitian Maudene Nelson will be online to offer tips and support, answer nutrition questions, and dial 911 in the event of an emergency.
Still don't want to cook or at least prep? We will give you information on services where you can order ready-to-cook meals that are simple, healthy, and less expensive than ordering from a restaurant. It's a preview of a longer presentation you can see at a later date.
During this demonstration, we will show you that:
- Cooking doesn't have to be complicated and time-consuming.
- You can cook using the tools you already have in your kitchen and everyday ingredients. For anyone uncomfortable with knives, we'll show you a tool to help you chop vegetables without fear. And we'll have a raffle to give a couple of them away!
- Cooking is a skill that anyone can learn. If we can do it...so can you!
The RSS Cooking Club is for anyone who loves to eat but wants to learn more about cooking. It doesn't matter what your comfort level is in the kitchen. Whether you are interested in learning more about cooking for yourself or just enjoy seeing how it's done, this club is for you.
