plant-based cooking
When it comes to wellbeing and cellular health, plant-based eating and an alkaline diet plays an important role in the integration of supporting an environment in the prevention of dis-ease, the reversal of dis-ease, and eating nutritionally what our species type is most set up for. As a gardener and food justice advocate, growing food and herbs, eating naturally, from the ground up, and organically, has created a powerful and vibrant lifestyle in which I began sharing more with others when I started teaching cooking classes, in collaboration with Minneapolis Edible Boulevards in 2021. Classes have been taught virtually over Zoom, in community gardens, and at local Minneapolis co-ops. Creating and demonstrating the simplicity and affordability of healthy eating is a key ingredient during my classes.

I was filled with so much knowledge and inspiration after attending a food demo that Kelly conducted at Eastside Co-op. She did such a great job demonstrating the process of making this delicious Ghanaian Spinach and Chickpea Stew. From start to finish, she took us all on an aromatic journey, overloading our senses. The stew was DELISHHH! Kelly definitely shows her passion for sharing food that is nourishing, wholesome and tasty. I look forward to more of her yummy creations!!!

Kelly has been teaching cooking classes with us since the fall of 2021, and you never would've known that those were the first culinary classes she'd taught to community members. She was so at ease in the kitchen and took the time to check in with each of the people joining on Zoom. We immediately received positive feedback; I can't imagine holding our Zoom or in-person instruction without Kelly there to engage with and lift up our attendees. Her recipes were always a hit, and as a participant myself, I often thought, ‘This is the most delicious 3 Sisters Salad or Caprese Salad or Walnut Meat I’ve ever had, and it was all plant-based!
