Redwood Students get a Veggiecation

A lively group of students and parents gathered on Wednesday evening, March 14th to participate in a hands-on cooking class led by Lisa Suriano, Founder of Veggiecation, a nutrition education program for children.  Together students and parents learned about the health benefits of many super veggies and fruits including kale, parsley, Granny Smith apples, bananas, and lemons.  The children participated in preparing three different recipes: Celery, Grape and Apple Salad, Lemon-Parsley Pesto, and a Kale and Banana Smoothie.  Not everyone liked every recipe, but everyone enjoyed learning and cooking together!  For recipes and more information, visit Veggiecation.com.
