Foodie Tuesday: Learning to Cook Healthily
Oct 11, 2011
Being able to cook isn't a skill that we are born with, and some of us really are clueless in the kitchen. This makes cooking healthy meals a chore, and it is easy to get stuck in a boring food rut when you don't know what to cook.
If you need to get inspired in the kitchen, why not take a cookery class to broaden your culinary horizons? We've rounded up some great classes going on at rec centres and community centres across Canada - why not sign-up and give one a whirl?
At Vancouver's Britannia Centre you can take a 3-hour workshop "All About Sprouts" where can learn how to grow your own super-healthy sprouts and incorporate them into your diet. This centre also offers a range of sessions with a holistic nutritionist and classes on healthy eating on a budget.
Also in Vancouver, the Roundhouse Community Centre offers classes on cooking easy low fat desserts, Mediteranean food, Asian food and healthy gourmet Italian food. Yum!
In Halifax, classes are offered through the city's HRM Rec program. There are youth cooking classes in Dartmouth and various other clases aimed at children. (Might as well get them interested in healthy cooking early, right?)
There are a number of classes that you can sign up for through the City of Winnipeg Adult Leisure Program, including Asian cookery and classes on creating great salads.
The City of Toronto offers a number of beginners cookery classes for adults and youth.
There are tons of interesting classes being held by the City of Ottawa Rec Program. You can take a class on cooking vegetables and lentils Indian style, sushi preperation, sensational smoothies and more.
Another good place to try and find cookery lessons is at your local community college - many offer evening classes aimed at adults looking to expand their horizons.

This post is a repeat, but look forward to more original content to come in the future.

I really do need to learn how
I really do need to learn how to cook. I know the basics- but it would be great to do something a little more challenging and exciting!
classes
I think the grocery stores hold cooking classes, and one could try the Y, the Heart and Stroke Foundation, multicultural organizations, and provincial agricultural and/or fisheries departments and organizations. They do demos. In my area, there are food fairs where chefs do demos and you get to try the food.
And experienced home cooks are often willing to show people how to make certain dishes, especially if they live alone/ are lonely and would enjoy the company and opportunity to pass on a skill. That's how I learned to make bread and apple jelly from scratch.
