COOKING DEMO WEBINAR: COOK ONCE, EAT TWICE

Original Air Date : July 21, 2020

During this challenging time, more of us are home and are cooking more meals than ever. But not everyone has the time – or likes spending their time in the kitchen which can be a barrier to individuals getting the nutrients they need for good health, including bone health.

Whether you are cooking for just one or two or a few more – cooking once so you can eat twice is a great strategy to simplify meal prep and save time in the kitchen. Recipes like Dairy Farmers of Manitoba’s Taco Rice Skillet make enough for two or even three meals. Made with Canadian dairy, each serving contains 28 g protein and 368 mg calcium which you need to keep bones strong and healthy.

In this Cooking Demo with Registered Dietitian Nita Sharda you will learn:

– To prepare a recipe that can be made once and used for two or more meals
– Strategies on saving time in the kitchen
– Tips on switching ingredients to suit your taste and budget
– Information on calcium and protein

You will also hear as Nita answers many of your cooking and nutrition questions.
