All About Protein | Saturday April 20th, 6:30 to 10:00PM | $95
Chef Jeanine Kelly

Protein is perhaps the most important macronutrient in your diet… but do you know how much protein you really need? What are the best sources of plant protein and how to add little bits of animal protein while eating a mostly whole food plant-based diet? In this class Chef and health coach Jeanine Kelly, will help you navigate the maze of information and mis-information about protein- when to eat it, what the best sources are and how to build muscle. As you age you need more protein to avoid developing sarcopenia (loss of skeletal muscle and strength). This menu is crazy delicious and mostly plants (a little tuna if you want ,but tuna can be subbed for tofu if you don’t want tuna). Don’t miss this delicious and informative class!

Lentil sweet potato Dahl
