With a real-life and hands-on approach that turns your neighborhood into the classroom, I will teach you professional secrets, tools, and techniques that will make you confident, healthier, and more efficient shopper and cook.

Grocery Shopping for Teens (+ Cooking Class)
This hands-on mobile workshop is especially geared to empower teens between the ages of 12 to 18 to make healthy food choices from the grocery store to the dinner table.
Overview: I will accompany you and your teens (up to two teens and one adult guardian; ages 12-18) to the grocery store and we will let them take the lead on the shopping. I will provide guidance throughout, teaching them how to select fruits and vegetables, how to read packaged food labels, how to calculate costs and pick out delicious and healthy choices while staying within a budget (you set the budget!). After shopping, we will bring the groceries home, and I will teach them how to properly prep and store the ingredients. Finally, we will end the day by having the teens prepare a meal of their choice with the items they purchased (under my instruction).
Cost: $250, includes shopping, prep, storage, and a teen cooking lesson. (Cost of groceries not included.)
