Discover the Delicious Path to Better Health by Eating 30+ Plants a Week

Whether you are an experienced cook looking for fresh inspiration to mix it up, or a beginner ready to take the first steps toward better health, this class is designed for you! 

• Explore different plant based foods
• Specialized nutrition advice from a registered dietitian
• Delicious simple recipes that are fiber and protein forward.

Why Focus on Plant Diversity and Fiber?

Fiber is a true superfood that protects us from lifestyle diseases, supports digestion, and helps keep blood sugar steady.

Eating a highly diverse plant-based diet helps to:

• Promote a Healthy Microbiome: Research shows that people who eat 30 or more different plants a week have significantly healthier gut microbiomes than those eating 10 or fewer.
• Balance Your Body: Your gut microbiome is the secret to a stronger immune system, stabilized moods, and even fewer food cravings. A diversity of plants can curb hunger, improve your sleep, and sharpen your mental clarity.
• Manage Inflammation & Support Heart Health: A balanced microbiome promotes cardiovascular health and helps prevent metabolic syndrome.

Who Should Attend?

This class is a must if you are:

• In Peri- or Post-Menopause: Experiencing hormone changes that naturally decrease gut microbiome diversity. Eating a wide variety of plants is one of the best ways to maintain a balanced microbiome during this transition.
• Pre-diabetic or Diabetic: Looking to promote insulin sensitivity and keep blood sugar steady.
• Working on Weight Loss (including GLP-1 users): Seeking nutrient-dense, high-fiber, and protein-balanced meals to maintain muscle and stay full.

Gather, Cook, and Learn—Together

This isn’t just about following a recipe; it’s a welcoming space to explore nutrition, pick up new skills, and enjoy the company of others while you nourish your body.

What to Expect

• Hands-On Learning & Tasting: This is an interactive experience where you will be rolling up your sleeves to prep and cook. Please note that we will focus on tasting various samples and flavor profiles rather than preparing full-sized meals.
• Take-Home Treats: In addition to the skills you learn, you’ll have a small handmade snack to take home and enjoy later!
• A Focus on Health: We’ll chat about the incredible health impacts of incorporating more plants into your daily life. You’ll learn how diverse, plant-forward cooking serves as the foundation for a healthy microbiome, steady blood sugar, and long-term wellness. We make the science simple and the “why” behind your food approachable and stress-free.
• A Social Atmosphere: This is a place to connect. You’ll be able to interact with fellow participants, share a laugh, and enjoy a sense of community from the comfort of your own kitchen.
