evidence-based culinary-nutrition programs
by Diane S Saenz 05 Mar '16

05 Mar '16

Hello Sneeze, Lately I have had numerous requests from clientele for hands-on programs that meld nutrition information and cooking. I am looking for evidence-based culinary-nutrition programs for adults that are independent of the SNAP-ED program. Are there any programs that you know of or have had success with? Please point me in the right direction. Thank you, Diane _______________________________ Diane S.
