prep.cook.eat Party with Fitness Enthusiasts

I've been here, there, and everywhere in the community teaching cooking classes and delivering healthy food presentations. Now I want to bring my passion for food and cooking right to you in the comfort of your home. Instead of going out, invite your friends or gather your family for a prep.cook.eat Party!  A prep.cook.eat Party is a fun way to learn and share new recipes and simple cooking techniques.
  
The scene
Saturday morning I had the pleasure of meeting with a group of fitness enthusiasts.  These health conscious ladies workout and group train together.They understand that while working out is beneficial to their health, eating well is even more important. After their group workout session they decided to have me over for a prep.cook.eat Party! Take a peek at the delicious fun!

The personalized Salads & Snacks menu:

Greek Salad • Wheat Berry Spinach Salad
 Avocado Tomato Salad  • Santa Fe Chicken Salad
 Kale Chips • No-Bake Oatmeal Energy Bars 
 Hummus w/Crudites • Brown Bag Popcorn 
 







The experience





I'm doing my part to bring Kale back. 
It's not just a green leafy decoration on the salad bar

 Even Baby Olivia likes the Kale Chips
 Prepping fun!

















Goodies To-go

prep.cook.eat Party @ Paola's

I've been here, there, and everywhere in the community teaching cooking classes and delivering healthy food presentations. Now I want to bring my passion for food and cooking right to you in the comfort of your home. Instead of going out, invite your friends or gather your family for a prep.cook.eat Party!  A prep.cook.eat Party is a fun way to learn and share new recipes and simple cooking techniques.

Cooking can be a delicious, fun social event. Take a look-see at Paola's Friday Girls' Night themed party!

The lovely hostess, Paola  


The crowd
A nice mix of friends, professional women (an insurance agent, lawyer, interpreter, educator, an upcoming star) and mothers coming together for an evening of fun and looking for new Outside of the Box recipes.


The personalized menu:
 Lettuce Wraps with made from scratch Teriyaki Sauce
Simple Slaw with homemade Peanut Sauce
Kale Chips
No-Bake Oatmeal Energy Bars



The experience
Let me tell you...These Latina women know their way around the kitchen. Since they all cook at home regularly after our introductions and a little chit-chat we started right in  prepping and cooking.
