Culinary Nutrition camp at via west campus highlight

sorry it took me so long to report, i've been away for 3 weeks at camp working hard like nonstop, but im bringing you some highlights about the culinary nutrition camp at via west. day one we gave particiapants the knife skills, they learned how to chop, mince, slice or dice. we taught them some kitchen safety and how not to get burned in the kitchen and i help out by demoing some knife skills and one camper taught i was joking around about kitchen and i told her, NO! i do take it very seriously and i've have 7 plus years prefecting recipes and i been doing it since i was 13 years old. on day 2 each group made 1 healthy entree and my team made sweet and soup chicken, the other four teams made Beef casserole. japanese noodle soup, lettuce wraps and i think they made something else, just cant think! we all sat down with a five course lunch and they seemed to love it! on day 3 and four we made some healthy snacks to serve at the dance, we prepared turkey pinwheels, brushetta, grapesicles, fruit skewers, smoothies etc. the regluar camp and our culinary crew seemed to enjoy it, we also prepare 5 types of desserts we prepared a fruity angel food cake trifle, chocolate cream pie, angel food cake with berries, berry sorbet squares and mircowaved baked apples, in addition to cooking we took particiapants out to lunch to fresh choice in cupertino and the very next day to the farmers market in santa clara, and they seemed to know about food just abour now. we pratice whats good for us which is go-slow and whats bad for us which is Whoa. we put diet coke into the go/slow section and regluar soda into a whoa, so i just gave up regluar im cutting back to 2- sometimes 3 a day. but most importantly drink water in between days, especially on workouts! thats my motto! so i planned on working to the 3 day cooking/nutrtion follow-up retreat from august 17-19th, so i just submitted some 150 calorie snack recipes to nurse sandy and she forward them to nurse sheryl so i hope to get an answer soon! so i will keep you updated with more about my job at a culinary nutrtion lifespan camp, so stick around!
