South Florida is booming with snowbirds this week as spring break is underway in the sunshine state. I'm excited to tell you about this week's adult and kids' cooking classes at The Real Food Academy as well as the benefits of beets!
First, on Thursday night we'll be focusing on a topic most students need help with: Knife Skills, Kitchen Essentials and Cooking Techniques. Then, on Saturday morning, kids will be doing their favorite: Making pasta from scratch!
This week, our Food For Thoughts topic focuses on one of the most misunderstood superfoods out there: Beets!
Beets are high in immune-boosting vitamin C, fiber, and essential minerals like potassium (essential for healthy nerve and muscle function) and manganese (which is good for your bones, liver, kidneys, and pancreas). Beets also contain the B vitamin folate, which helps reduce the risk of birth defects...
Next, in our recipes section, we share simple & healthy dishes that include a healthy superfood vinaigrette for your salads, a hearty twice baked potato and, a delicious berry dessert that doubles as breakfast! Explore those recipes and more here!
I look forward to seeing you on Thursday and Saturday, and hope you will continue to make healthy choices when choosing food to fuel your body - and soul!
At The Real Food Academy, we teach how to cook using real ingredients. We believe that all kinds of meals, snacks, and desserts should be enjoyed, and that what often makes certain foods feel “unhealthy” is the processed ingredients used to make them.
By using better oils, natural sweeteners, and thoughtfully sourced ingredients, our customers learn to make food that’s familiar, satisfying, and smarter for their bodies and lifestyles.
Because our staffing, ingredient purchases, and overall preparations are planned based on the number of registered participants, all payments and deposits are non-refundable.
The Real Food Academy offers in-house wine and beer options for adults at all events, including when accompanying kids’ parties. For a full selection, please visit our Wine and Beer list page.
The Real Food Academy can accommodate a wide range of dietary needs and allergies, including:
Please let us know your needs in advance so we can plan accordingly and adjust our recipes if needed.
We love when guests personalize and decorate our space. However, items like glitter, confetti, slime, stickers, and noisemakers can be very difficult to clean and may disrupt the experience.
For this reason, we kindly ask that you do not bring these items.
