My goals when I began the Eat to thrive program was to ease into a plant based diet. I quickly learned I had to learn the very basics of cooking since I had done very little cooking iny life! The course taught me the kitchen equipment I needed and how to use them. Expert speakers taught me the basics of nutrition and cleansing. Former students used their favorite plan based recipes to make meals.

At the end of the program I was making basic plant based meals, moving toward growing my own sprouts, including wheatgrass and on my way to a healthier lifestyle by following the plant based plan and minimizing my use of sweets that are high in sugar.
