Tip of the Week: Use raw cacao in recipes instead of cocoa. Raw cacao has 20-30x more antioxidants than green tea, is high in serotonin (the happy hormone!), high in omega 3 fatty acids and is one of the most magnesium rich foods. Try it in 5 ingredient chocolate pudding, Very Berry Dessert in a Hurry, and Healthy and Sweet Breakfast Pâté.

Eating healthfully can be less expensive than diets fueled by seemingly inexpensive processed products, fast-food products, or nutrient-poor products. Each recipe in this course is designed to work for people on a budget who may also have minimal time or access to equipment. Each ingredient can be found easily and supports a low-fat, plant-based diet that has proven to prevent, manage, and in some cases reverse chronic diseases such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and even some forms of cancer. This is a four class series and there is a fifth, supplemental class which supports a grocery store tour if feasible. Single classes are also offered.
