About this service
Each week we choose a new recipe and work together to prepare a healthy meal inspired by Canadas Food Guide. Youth are encouraged to bring in their own family recipes, and they teach and learn from their peers about cooking from different traditions. We also learn together about organization, budgeting, time management, teamwork, leadership, safety, nutrition and healthy lifestyles. Our groups range in size from 15 to 25 youth.
Cooking is an important life skill that prepares our youth to take control of their health and become healthy adults. We learn about other cultures through diverse menu selections, and our consulting dietician helps us learn to make good choices on everything from portion sizes, to hidden fats and sugars in junk food, to avoiding fast food. Youth take that knowledge with them and feel a sense of independence when they are then able to cook for themselves, their siblings and their families.
