Home Cooked Health Classes

During the months of April, May and June we at Nutritional Solutions embarked on a 3 part Domestic Cooking Class series. The sessions covered “Dinners Done & Dusted”, “Portion Distortion” and “Va Va Voom Veggies”. The classes were aimed at providing practical, hands-on classes to showcase quick and easy meal options that are healthy and tasty too.

Key nutrition concepts covered in the sessions included the importance of measuring oil amounts when cooking, using less salt and more herbs & spices for flavour, the role of Omega-3 Fatty acids in health as well as the health benefits of fibre found in legumes and skin of fruit and vegetables. Portion control was also covered through demonstrations of correct weighing and measuring techniques all participants were encouraged to continue these practices in their kitchens at home. The “new ways with veggies” class was such a hit and the ladies were surprised to find themselves falling in love with vegetables cooked in a variety of ways.

There was much enthusiasm and the ladies loved every minute of the informative, fun and interactive class. Each class, one of the participants was a lucky winner of a Pick ‘n Pay Gift Voucher and everyone was proud to take home tasters of a
ll the delicious food they had cooked. A big thank you to Gerhard from the Mielé Kitchen in Bryanston for hosting our series and to all the ladies who joined us and participated so willingly – it was such a pleasure!

We will be running more classes in August and September. Please contact 011 463 5502 or email admin@www.nutritionalsolutions.co.za.www30.cpt3.host-h.net for more information.
