Eating healthy can be delicious and fun! In this class, Chef Peredina strives to show groups that they can create dishes that are heart-healthy yet still absolutely delicious! Working from the ground up, teams join together to create a main course and a side dish completely from scratch that is both satisfying and good for the body!

Groups begin with creating a salad made from the ancient grain farro. Farro has many health benefits over other common starches such as rice and potatoes, and it is easy to work with and absolutely delicious! Teams begin by cooking the farro in water until it is softened, after which it is combined with fresh tomatoes and various herbs to create the perfect beginning to a healthy meal!
Instead of using pasta, the main course involves zucchini noodles which the groups will form as a team. These zucchini noodles pack just as much flavor as their carbohydrate-heavy counterparts, and supply a double dose of nutrition as well! Once the noodles are created, Chef Peredina will show everyone how to create a flavorful avocado pesto accompanied by fresh sautéed shrimp for a dish that will make you understand how delicious healthy eating can be!
