Do you have a picky eater? Are you looking for creative ways to get nutrients into your child? Are you tired of being in the kitchen 24 hours a day with the constant snacking and cooking a different meal for each family member?

If yes, then we have an answer you’ve been waiting for!

MISA’S CLEAN KITCHEN: Kids in the Kitchen with Misa is empowering kids with skills needed to create a lifetime of healthy eating.

This hands-on, interactive kids cooking series may be the perfect class for you and your child.  They will have fun developing important life skills in the kitchen while trying new foods, and expanding their tastes to appreciate real food so that they feel empowered with the skills needed to create healthy eating habits for a lifetime.

We will be making nutrient-dense, gluten-free recipes including pancakes for breakfast, muffins for a snack, healthy nuggets for a side, and a delicious dessert you can feel good about feeding your child.  All the recipes are made with whole food ingredients and free of processed sugar. 

We have 4 classes coming up and you may register for one or all of them. Each registration is unique and each class is making a different dish. Please check our online calendar for registration links and details about ingredients and tools that you need for each class. You may participate in just one or all classes. They will all take place via Zoom on Tuesdays at 4:30 PM in your kitchen.

We’ll be making the following on these dates:  April 6 ‘Popeye’s Pancakes’, April 13 ‘The Hulk’s Muffins’, April 20 ‘Rainbow Fish Nuggets’ and May 6 ‘Cookie Monster Dip’.

Classes are geared towards preschool and elementary aged children. Registration is required.
