26 Jun Nutrition on a Mission: Intensive culinary & nutrition workshop in Austin, TX July 26-27

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”   Hippocrates

Food, food choice and food education visionary Amanda Archibald, RD, Chef & author of Mediterranean Diet Cookbook For Dummies, Wendy Jo Peterson, RD  and yours truly are three women on a nutrition mission. We’re so dedicated to that Hippocrates mantra “let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food” that we’ve created Nutrition On a Mission-a first of it’s kind culinary nutrition workshop for consumers and healthcare professionals.

Using the Food as Medicine approach as our guide, we’ll be translating nutritional science into the kitchen using a wide array of demonstrations, basic hands on practice work and simple culinary techniques with easy-to-integrate recipes concepts. Each concept delivers deep nutrition and flavor in affordable ways. In just 10 hours, we’ll show you how to build that vital bridge between your personal health and how to create what IS your best medicine–using food as our only tools.

Our first stop is in Austin, Texas on July 26-27. Please click here for more details.
