Sat, Nov 2: Mediterraean Diet: North Africa

Saturday, November 2nd, 5pm-8:30pm

Mediterranean Diet: North Africa with Dave - $89 per person

*This will be a repeating monthly class for 2024, each month will feature a different Mediterranean Cuisine(s).

Has your Doctor recently told you that you need to go on the Mediterranean Diet ASAP? Mine did. But what is it and why is it a better alternative to eating most of a pie in one sitting? The Mediterranean Diet harnesses the traditional way of eating and highlights foods that are consumed in the countries that surround the Mediterranean Sea. With an emphasis on olive oil, vegetables, and fish (with the occasional red meat dish or dessert), the M.D. retrains us to develop Healthy Eating Patterns without sacrificing many of the flavors we love most! I PROMISE you will not know you’re eating “diet” food! This is a hands-on class. 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:

• Couscous au Poisson – Tunisian Fish with Couscous
• Bazeen – Libyan Steamed Dough with Tomato Sauce and Lamb
• Ta’amiya and Aish Baladi –The Egyptian versions of both Falafel and Pita 
  
• Lablabi – Tunisian Chickpea Stew
