Due to the rapid filling of the first Knife Skills Cooking Class, the Wellness Council is pleased to present a second offering of the class.  If you were unable to register for the first class, you have a second chance to attend on Friday, November 22nd.  Seating is limited.

  • According to the USDA and HHS, over 50% of Americans have chronic diseases which are preventable through lifestyle modification, including diet
  • Studies have shown that there are direct links between the consumption of home-prepared foods and improved nutrition and health
  • Other studies link home food preparation with the reduction of chronic disease

Increase your confidence in home-cooking by learning to handle a chef knife like a pro!  Join Chef Evelyn Lannak of the MCC Hospitality Management Department in this hands-on class that will teach you how to handle a chef knife with confidence.  At the end of the class, we’ll transform our cut vegetables into a tasty treat (Sweet and Savory Bruschetta).

Come join us on Friday, November 22, 2024 from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. in the Hospitality Department kitchen in Building 3 room 140-A.  This event is free to all participants, thanks to the Wellness Council.  This event is open to all MCC employees.
