Meals are vegetarian and are made from seasonal, organically grown &/or foraged vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts and seeds, and grains. They are also wheat-, dairy-, and sugar-free and can be adjusted for specific dietary needs (e.g. gluten-free and candida diets.)

The Green Gourmet Cooking School presents……………..

Change Your Diet, Change Your Life!
Wheat/dairy/gluten-free Cooking Classes
Taught by Ann Miller-Cohen, a.k.a. Organic Annie

Dietary changes can be easier and more powerful than you think.  Eating better can improve your mood, energy and strengthen immunity. Your body will begin to seek its perfect weight as every system comes into balance.

These classes teach you about the qualities and effects of various foods and how to combine them for best digestion.  They will give you the hands-on experience needed to easily make healthful and delicious meals at home.

Participants report that these classes are fun and transformative!

cooked, from wild edibles and organics, to sea vegetables; and best and
easiest ways to prepare them.

Bean Cuisine—We’ll serve up a variety of wholesome legumes as sprouts,
soups, dips and patties.  We’ll discuss how to make them easy to digestible.

Cultured Foods—Sample veggie kraut, kombucha tea, and dairy-free yogurt.

Whole Grains—Their fiber and filling abilities win them a place on our list.
Red rice, millet, quinoa, teff and buckwheat will be prepared during the course.    Learn a simple and little-known technique for making gluten-free waffles,pancakes and muffins.

Desserts and Snacks—These foods count and they are an opportunity to maxi-mize good nutrition for adults and children. They need to be unprocessed and nutrient-dense with low/no refined sweeteners. Super foods will be included.

Recipes, sources and a complete meal are provided at each class.

$25 per class, 3 for $65, or all four classes for $80.  Register together
