Take a culinary journey to the Mediterranean and discover vibrant, healthy dishes inspired by sun-soaked flavors of the region. Each dish will be packed with fresh herbs, bold spices, and zesty ingredients that will transport your taste buds. Kristyn will be cooking alongside you, sharing instructions, tips and tricks throughout class. The class is your time to ask questions, ask for feedback, learn a little something and most importantly, have fun!
To Prepare for Class: Recipes will be sent to registered patrons two weeks before the class date. Patrons will simply purchase ingredients & gather their kitchen equipment from the provided recipes. For a more relaxed class, we recommend prepping your ingredients ahead of time (chopping, measuring). This is not required, however, as you will be guided through every step of preparation. You may also join us to simply watch along!
