Cooking Matters
A six-lesson course, instructed once a week for six weeks, focused on preparing and shopping for healthy meals on a limited budget.
Cooking Matters™, a program of Share Our Strengths No Kid Hungry campaign, is a cooking-based nutrition class. This program provides a long-term solution to hunger and poor nutrition by demonstrating strategies to get the best nutrition possible on a limited budget.
The six-week hands-on classes are instructed in the kitchen by chefs and nutritionists who volunteer to teach nutrition, cooking, food-budgeting and shopping techniques.
Highlights of the course includes: a bag of groceries to prepare recipes learned about each week, a grocery store tour, and a potluck dinner during the last class.
Volunteers and chefs are needed!
