The teacher will lead the students through a short lesson on the nutritional value of the main ingredients in the recipe: Walnuts, dates, raw cacao powder, sea salt. Step by step guidance, if necessary, will be given to the collective group of students. A parent or other adult may assist or be on call to do so, if the student needs help in accomplishing this activity. The necessary supplies are listed here, and on the recipe sheet - "Chia Seed Pudding". Print a copy of the recipe at the end of the lesson (See added files) Parents can review the list for ingredients to be purchased for the lesson, and non - food items required for completing the recipe: Chia Seed Pudding Recipe What You’ll Need Is: ½ cup Chia Seeds 1/4 cup Cacao Powder or unsweetened Chocolate Powder 1-1/2-2 Tbsp Maple Syrup (Grade B or Honey) ½ tsp Vanilla Extract ½ tsp Ground Cinnamon (Optional) 1 pinch Sea Salt 1-1/2 cups Almond Milk* or Light Coconut Milk Instructions: 1.

I am offering this class to give students practical experiences of "Cooking Without Fire!" Raw foods are healthy choices for children to make, and the more opportunity they have to try new things, foods, methods of preparations, the more likely they are to develop a habit of choosing healthy foods that they "know something" about.Reviews
