Carlisle, Pennsylvania-based The Giant Co. will host free, live classes through Zoom for consumers in January and February.
“Bring more balance to your meal planning this year,” said Holly Doan, dietitian. “Whether incorporating more produce, filling up with fiber or trying some new quick and easy meals, let The Giant Co. dietitians help you start fresh in 2023.”
Upcoming classes over the next couple of months include:
- Produce spotlight – Join the dietitians at 12 p.m every Monday to explore seasonal produce with featured recipes like Thai Mango, Cucumber Salad and Peanut Butter and Banana French Toast. In February, the dietitians will explore red, yellow, green and blue color groups and the benefits of eating a rainbow of fruits and veggies.
- Well-being workshops – In January, discover new finds in each grocery department throughout a virtual store tour series. Dietitians will celebrate Heart Health Month in February with classes like Mediterranean Diet.
- Build a balanced meal – In January, dietitians will hold a Build a Balanced Soup series at 12 p.m. on Tuesdays in honor of National Soup Month. In February, the series continues highlighting affordable ideas for building a balanced spaghetti night, salad, dessert and oatmeal bowl.
- Family meals at 5 – The Giant Co. dietitians will help attendees at 5 p.m. every Tuesday in January, with classes featuring a Take 5-theme, where recipes like corn stuffed peppers and teriyaki pork and pineapple with rice will be five or less ingredients and will take under 30 minutes to prepare. In February, attendees will prepare PA Beef’s sirloin steak with asparagus and tomato orzo.
