I’m excited to incorporate more nutrition information and fun food writing into the cooking classes. It warms my heart to think I can help students make healthy decisions now and create life-long habits.

I may even go the extra mile and make a healthier vegan cream cheese. I’ll provide you with a recipe in case you decide to make the effort.

Not, raw, (see Passover Part I post here) but something healthier (than the usual Pesach fare…) I’m looking forward to making for Pesach (instead of matzo meal pancakes or matzo brei), is this recipe my sister shared with me. The recipe is either for “Paleo naan” or a paleo (or Passover!) crepe/pancake. Recipe from www.myheartbeets.com.
