We are so excited to cook with you next week and to talk about the impact of food on health and menopause! Our class will focus on habits and goal setting and we will make one master recipe that yields two delicious and easy dinners. Cook Once and Eat Twice: Sheet Pan Salmon Dinner and Indian Spiced Salmon Cakes.
