Looking for some mealtime inspiration to get your year started off right? Cass County Extension is excited to offer a new educational series for home cooks in February 2020. If you’re looking for ideas on how to eat healthy and make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen, the Healthy and Homemade workshop series is for you! Join Barb Fuller, ISU Extension and Outreach Human Sciences Specialist in Nutrition and Wellness for a three-part series on Thursdays, February 13, 20, and 27 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm each night in Atlantic, at the Cass County Community Center.
In the first session, Cook Now, Enjoy Later, you’ll learn how planning can reduce stress and save money while still resulting in delicious, nutritious home-cooked meals.
