🌱🥗 What an incredible plant-based cooking demo we had yesterday led by our amazing Registered Dietitian, Laurie! 🙌✨ Laurie guided us through making mouthwatering black bean burgers that were an absolute hit! 🍔💚 We also enjoyed a vibrant arugula salad with olives, feta, and fresh dill – sensational! 🥗🌿 As a special treat, we used Cherokee Summer Crisp lettuce from our hydroponic garden at the West Suburban YMCA! 🌱 This crisp, fresh lettuce was a star in our salad, and participants were able to take home freshly picked parsley, chives, and lettuce. 🥬🌿🍃 Plus, everyone had a chance to be hands-on in the kitchen and assemble their own fruit salads, topped with a tangy poppy seed dressing that took the flavor to the next level. 🍓🍍🍊 A huge thanks to Laurie for her expertise and passion. You made healthy eating not just informative but also fun and delicious! 👏 You can catch Laurie and Clancy next month in the New Berlin teaching kitchen as they lead a demo on Sheet Pan Meals: https://bit.ly/3WIqrwB
