Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 On Wednesday evening, May 17th, Bay Area Vegetarians will be hosting a vegan cooking class in Sausalito. The class will be taught by Chef Alex Bury, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America. Many of you have enjoyed Alex's culinary skills from the Sparks restaurant she owned/ran in Guerneville. Alex now works full-time for PETA, part-time as a cooking instructor for the McDougall Program, and writes the regular "Heart Smart Cooking" column for Bay Area Vegetarians. This is your opportunity to learn from a professional chef, at a fraction of what a cooking class usually costs. This class will be geared towards non-vegetarian teenagers, with a focus on familiar comfort foods, particularly easy and inexpensive foods that teens can make for themselves. There will be samples and recipe handouts provided. Also included will be information about veg options at fast food restaurants teens frequent now. All participants will be entered into a giveaway for a "No Animals in Here" lunch bag donated by PETA. This is a great place for veggie food to-go!
