Everyone is now enjoying our new freedoms and being able to picnic outdoors, so let’s continue with our picnic theme!  With the 4th of July just around the corner, Sheila will show you how to prepare:

  •   Mushroom, zucchini, butternut squash, and tofu skewers
  •   Red pepper sauce
  •   Vegan pulled pork sandwiches
  •   Quinoa salad
  •   Seasonal fruit salad

Join Sheila from your home kitchen for a vegetarian food adventure through the magic of Zoom. By the time you finish this cooking workshop, you will have lovingly prepared a meal for 4 people!

Have you ever considered cooking as a mindfulness practice? Working with Sheila, you learn to maintain a presence of mind: doing your prep work in advance, laying your equipment and materials out to begin with, and moving calmly, cheerfully, with awareness through the cooking process. Mindful eating of your delicious results becomes a natural follow-through to your workshop experience.

Mindfulness practices can enhance your overall well-being. A healthy lifestyle that supports the physical health of the body with good nutrition, regular exercise, and adequate sleep can support your immune system in the era of this pandemic that we are all experiencing.

How to Prepare

Come with your curiosity, a cutting board, and your favorite knife and spoon for stirring, and let the fun begin. You will need a sauté pan for the “pulled pork” as well as a baking pan baking for the skewers (metal or bamboo skewers required).  Grilling the skewers is optional. You will also need a pot for cooking the quinoa and making the red pepper sauce.  

How to Present

When was the last time you used bamboo or other reusable tableware?  Use a blanket, some glass jars, and reusable containers and you will have a sustainable picnic! 

Recipes will be provided when you sign up!

“Dr. Dean Ornish demonstrated in 1990 that eating a whole food, largely plant-based diet could reverse heart disease, as well as provide other health benefits, including weight loss. It’s no surprise at Still & Moving Center that this diet works when combined with moderate aerobic exercise, group support, and stress management training!”
