Dietitians with the Carlisle, Pennsylvania-based The Giant Co. will host virtual nutrition classes to help you explore new flavors and nutrition in March and get a jump on Easter and the growing plant-based food trend in April. All classes are offered free and live via Zoom.
“From mini-chefs to foodie families, our upcoming virtual nutrition classes are all about spring solutions,” said Kilene Knitter, dietitian with The Giant Co. “We’re focused on sharing meals and snacks to provide you with inspiration for your own table, whether it’s new ways to incorporate spices, brightening your plate with spring produce or going 100 percent plant-based without giving up any of the foods you love. There’s something for everyone this spring.”
The dietitians will have sessions every Tuesday at 5 p.m. March classes are focused on a new spice each week and include lentil-chorizo empanadas and cinnamon spiced chicken thighs with mango salsa.
These dietitian sessions will be held at noon every Wednesday in March as the dietitians, along with some special guests, explore different cuisines and demonstrate how to incorporate favorite cultural flavors and foods into a balanced, healthy lifestyle.
The Giant Co.’s dietitians have Easter-themed ideas for aspiring chefs of all ages to share from carrot cake bites to a bunny board. From slow cooker spring green risotto to carrot cake pancakes, the dietitians are bringing fresh and creative ideas to help brighten your plate by incorporating a rainbow of produce. April’s recipes feature meals that are 100 percent plant-based including veggie Shepard’s pie and tofu banh mi.
These cooking sessions will be held at noon every Tuesday in April. All classes are free to attend, but advanced registration is required for each class at thegiantcompanynutritionists.eventbrite.com.
A complete listing of all The Giant Co. virtual classes and ingredients needed for each class are also available on the event page. In addition, customers can earn 50 choice rewards points when they register, provide their card number, and attend the entire class.
