This hands-on course will go over strategies to plan, cook, and eat healthy. Each week participants will prepare/cook food to taste along with practicing strategies for meal planning to expand knowledge of the MyPlate nutrition guide.
Participants will also go home with tools and recipes each week. Participants are encouraged to look for our next 10 Tips series class in November where we will focus on taking this nutrition information and matching it with strategies around food budgeting.
Samantha is the SNAP Educator for Lincoln County. She works through Healthy Lincoln County teaching nutrition and cooking classes throughout the community both to school aged children and adults.
