The Healthy Menu

July 23-25, 2010
Hosted by Kendall College, Chicago

Let’s make a connection between nutrition and good taste!

Join your fellow culinarians as we discuss and apply classroom practices that go beyond low fat and low salt adjustments to the menu.

This workshop will explore the science aspects of healthy cooking as well as looking at eating through the ages. Allergies and intolerances will be discussed along with menu writing activities.

But most of all, we want to go back to the enjoyment of eating! We’ll work on projects which will help you bring the nutrition side of our culinary knowledge together with the goal of good (for you) food and good taste.

The workshop will begin with a presentation and reception on Friday afternoon and continue through all day Saturday and Sunday. Come prepared to be surprised that many of the assumptions you have about food may prove to be challenged!

A full agenda will be available early in 2010. A block of rooms has been reserved at the Seneca Hotel, in the heart of Chicago’s Michigan Avenue. Download the Hotel information.
