The Kitchen Divas program hosts healthy cooking classes that include professionally guided, educational discussions and peer support. The program works to reduce the occurrence of nutrition-related health risks and increase well-being through instruction on healthy cooking, preventive lifestyle practices, eating habits, and physical activity for women of all ages.
Program goals include:
Enhance knowledge, attitudes, and behavior about cardiovascular, heart, and breast health and cancer risk reduction.
Share healthful food preparation knowledge and provide education in nutritional food purchase and cooking practices.
Improve nutrition by increasing fruits, vegetables, fiber, and by decreasing fats, and preserving meats.
is it for vegetarians?
With enhanced knowledge of culturally based cooking, attitudes and behavior about cardiovascular, heart, and breast health and cancer risk reduction, we can heal our communities.
Kitchen Divas food demonstrations, workshops, health education, and advocacy support and encourage lifestyle change via nutrition and exercise.
While we are not trying to convert folks to being a vegetarian, we are focused on increasing the fruits and vegetables in our diets. So classes and demonstrations welcome vegetarians and focus on plant-based meal preparation.
At the end of the cooking experience, participants will have participated in the preparation of and sampled food to create a menu for one complete meal.
