Workshop Description: 

The November 30 workshop topic will be: Healthy & Fast Family Cooking. Regardless of what your day looks like, whether that is working at home/in an office, or the important task of taking care of your kids/elderly family members full time, we all struggle to some degree with what to cook for our families. More importantly, how to make meals both fast AND healthy. This workshop seeks to serve parents/caregivers by offering some ideas for healthy and fast cooking. We will open dialogue to people who want a space to speak about their experiences with managing a healthy meal plan.  

It is our hope that this workshop will offer anyone who has been seeking a sense of community for parents managing the scheduling of healthier meals some extra support and a safe space to dialogue with members of the community who are living the same experiences.  

NOTE: If you have a healthy and fast recipe that you would like to share during our discussion section, please feel free to do so.
