Trash to Table: Turkey Day Trimmings with Cortney - $75 per person

Have you ever thrown away food and wished that you could re-purpose it or make something delicious with it?  There is a way!  This year at Gather we’ve made a dedication to reduce our food waste and become more conscious about how we use ALL of our food.  In our new From Trash To Table Series we’ll be bringing you a new topic each month.  And since we’ll be using food scraps, it reduces our food cost…which means that we can donate it back into the community!  All of the profits from our From Trash To Table Series will be donated to Food To Power.  Food To Power has redistributed over $6 million of healthy groceries since 2013 in the Colorado Springs region. Using a "direct redistribution" model, Food to Power transports surplus healthy foods from local supermarkets, backyard gardens and cafeterias to 20+ non-profit and community-based grocery programs.

Here comes a big holiday of eating – and along with that comes a big day of waste! In this class we’ll be talking about two different topics – creative ways to use leftovers AND how to use the trimmings and waste from a big holiday dinner. This class is taught in our 2x4 format – we’ll split up into groups of 2 and each twosome will tackle one recipe. 

On the menu:

• Crispy Potato Peels with Beer Ranch Dip
• Leftover Turkey Poutine
• Savory Mushroom Bread Pudding
• Cranberry Ginger Hand Pies with Orange Glaze
