Join us for a fun and interactive day focused on food, nutrition, and hands-on cooking! The event kicks off with a trip to Chicory Market, where students from the Coordinated Program in Dietetics will give you a tour of the store, explaining what's in season and how different ingredients can help create balanced meals.

Afterward, we'll head back to campus, where you’ll learn how to cook a tasty, budget-friendly recipe—like tortilla pizza—at the Whitwell Kitchen. CP students will guide you through the steps, offering tips on nutrition, cooking techniques, and answering any questions you have. Plus, we’ll make sure the recipe is easy to follow and incorporates nutrients that are often missing from a college diet, like fiber and calcium.

At the end, you’ll get all the ingredients and the recipe to re-create the meal at home—so you can impress your friends with your new cooking skills! Come for the fun, stay for the food.  Oh, and you'll also receive a free meal kit and reusable grocery tote! Space is limited to 12 participants. Transportation is provided if needed.
