Calgary’s Cooking
Save money, learn to budget, and cook with a group of like-minded people.
Save money, learn to budget, and cook with a group of like-minded people.
The members gather to plan a menu around advertised specials in major food store flyers. Each participant pays for his or her share of the food. This is calculated by dividing the total cost of the food by the number of servings required.
The members get together at a designated kitchen to prepare and cook the recipes. At the end of the cook, each member has several meals to take home and freeze for later, thus furthering healthy eating habits. Members share recipes and nutritional knowledge as they cook, and everyone gains from each other’s enthusiasm. Often participants are introduced to new foods, contributing to a more balanced diet.
With Calgary's Cooking you pay less money per serving for healthy meals than you do for most frozen meals you can buy at the grocery store! In addition, they are more nutritious and contain less sodium.
