ELREC: Free Community Cooking Class at Heart of Newhaven

We are excited to share details about our new meal preparation course, funded by #LeithChooses

The “Efficient & Healthy Cooking” programme is designed primarily for, but not exclusively limited to, migrant and Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) residents in Leith.

This programme aims to support individuals facing financial and societal barriers to accessing healthy food by offering an educational and practical course covering the following topics:

1. Efficiency and sustainability in meal preparation for families 

2. Maintaining health and nutrition without compromise 

3. Sourcing ingredients efficiently without breaking the bank or damaging the environment 

4. Shopping for food with efficiency and sustainability in mind 

5. Practicing efficient and sustainable recipes and cooking methods 

6. Learning about food waste elimination and managing leftovers 

Led by a qualified nutritionist, this programme provides an excellent opportunity to gain practical knowledge about food, including financial, nutritional, and cooking skills.

Additionally, we aim to combat loneliness and isolation by bringing people together to learn and share meals! 

❤️
