Cooking Class: Beautiful Salads For Dinner

We’re not talking about the salad bar at the fast food restaurant.  Beautiful salads give us the opportunity to appreciate a visual variety of raw and cooked vegetables as well as make them a complete meal with good for you protein and other healthy add-ins.  Homemade dressings and vinagrettes are superior to store bought: easy to make, fresher, healthier and better tasting.

You will learn:

  • the secrets of making vinaigrettes and dressings (yes, there is a science behind it!) and why you never need to buy store bought dressings again
  • the key ingredients that must be included in every salad
  • making salads a meal that even your husband will feel satisfied with
  • how to save time when making salads
Click HERE to see the menu and to sign up! This class will also be offered on Thursday September 20th as a morning class.
