These are some favorite meals from around the globe! We’re keeping the flavor, but pulling out the added calories and excess fat. No need to talk calories counts here, rather, you will learn about calorie density vs. nutrient density so that next time you cook, you’ll have a better understanding of how to re-create meals in your own kitchen that are full of flavor, nutrient dense to support optimum health and not packed with excess calories. This class is also gluten-free!
