Teen Beats and Eats

Your teens will learn basics of budgeting, meal planning, basic nutritional guidelines and the actual cooking skills needed to prepare a healthy meal. This program is unique! It fills a gap in our school system that is no longer offering the basic economics and life skills course, while being creative and having fun. We will rock out to music of their choice during their experience. The inspiration for this program stemmed from working with teens for over 10 years as a company advisor at WA Business Week, teaching teens about business and finances, all-the-while having a blast.

Want to help expand this program to bigger and better opportunities?! Be the first to try out a meal prepped by your teen! Wouldn’t it be amazing to have a healthy meal prepped and ready to go into the oven when you get home from a long day at work?! The pride your teen will have serving their family, while learning and having fun – invaluable!

Taking things to the next level will be a series of classes that will have challenges using limited ingredients. This is a time for your teens to shine with their creativity and possibly earn the chance to assist as a sous chef for some local catering events.

There will be special theme-based-menus with limited participation announced on the website throughout the year. Watch for them!
