Mauna Fisher. cene. Diane Troyer, Amanda CTSI and Food Share of Lincoln County worked together to bring this 6-week cooking course to our county, and we are excited to be the first of the classes held in Lincoln County. Each week, the graduates learned cooking skills, nutrition, food safety and new tasty recipes! Participants sent pictures of healthy meals they made at home. One participant shared that her husband was a picky eater and made top ramen for himself, instead of eating her cooking. She told him that it hurt her feelings that he would not try the food she worked hard to make. He agreed to try and ended up having three helpings! Onions and all! aron Mason and Dorme Rilutti Kyanna Fisher practiced making the frittata at home after class and said her kids didn’t know there was spinach in it. See her picture below. People who said they don’t like rice decided to challenge themselves to cook the rice in class. Now they like it and include rice in their meals at home. Another participant asked about quinoa (a healthy whole grain), so we made it in the next class to taste. We have learned that 3 other people said that they now use quinoa in their home cooking. We will advertise more classes as they become available. To get on our call list, contact Healthy Traditions at 541-444-9627 or sharlar@ctsi.nsn.us.
