Welcome cooks/young chefs!  If you're wanting to learn to cook or just learn new recipes, this weekly ongoing cooking class is for you.  Join us for this weekly cooking club as we work through each step of the recipe together to create delicious meals for your family!   Each main dish will take 45-60 minutes to create not including any extra needed bake time. You’ll  improve your food preparation skills (how to slice, dice, chop, etc.,  learn more about food safety, build your kitchen confidence and add new, yummy recipes to your recipe file that you can create for your family again and again. 

The list of ingredients will be posted in the classroom 3-5 days before we make the meal to give you plenty of time to get everything ready, or to decide to pause for the week if you cannot eat the recipe or it's just not for you. I will send out the full recipe the day of the class to print for your recipe file.   I will also let you know what will need to be prepared before class, such at mincing garlic, chopping any vegetables, etc.  This will be on the ingredient list, otherwise we most often have time to do all preparation in class.

Because there are things I cannot eat any more but recognize there are some recipes my students loved- occasionally I will not cook with the kids but will help them create the recipe as I watch them and talk them through it, being available for more questions.

** Please note-It's not the norm to refund each time a student misses a class as they are able to watch the class video later when they are home from a camp or vacation (I have many students who do the classes on their vacation!), or when they are feeling better if they get sick, and still receive most of the benefits of the class.  I send them the ingredient list the week before, the recipe the morning of the class for their records, and then the class is recorded at the listed time.  
With that said there are sometimes extenuating circumstances in-which you have no control!  If you are in need of a refund in these cases please message me so we can talk!
