Last Chance to Sign up for Vegetarian Cooking Class

SEPTEMBER'S VEGETARIAN COOKING CLASS -- FOOD TO GO: MEALS FOR SCHOOL, HOME, OR

THE OFFICE

 

**Our monthly cooking classes are a testament to the abundance of fabulously

delicious, filling, and nutritious food you enjoy when you leave behind the meat

and dairy.**

 

The summer is almost over, as students begin to return to school, vacationers

return to work, and we all create our meal routines! September's class focuses

on " food to go " -- whether we are packing healthful lunches for our children,

brown-bagging lunches for the office, or running out the door for a full day of

errands.

Join us on Saturday September 20th as we whip up:

 

-Sloppy " Joe " (Veggie variation of the old standard!)

-Sloppy " Col " (Variation of the variation)

-Veggie Burritos and Veggie Wraps

-Colorful Bean Salad with Brown Rice

-Eggless Egg Salad

-Light Lemon Bundt Cake with Lemon Sauce

 

In addition to what we're actually cooking, we will provide you with a bevy of

resources, suggestions, and ideas for plant-based cooking, including lots of

ideas for menu-planning, especially for quick and easy meals for lunch or

dinner. We'll also be offering a raffle, sponsored by VegNews (www.vegnews.com),

the winner of which will receive a wonderful cookbook (my favorite!) The

Peaceful Palate by Jennifer Raymond.

 

WHEN: Saturday, September 20th -- 10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.

WHERE: First Unitarian Church of Oakland, 685 14th St. at Castro. Directions:
