Please join us in this launch of the VSDC Whole Food Plant Based (WFPB) Affinity Group for a wonderful meal at the all-vegan and WFPB Green Fare in Herndon, VA. We’ve made a reservation for 12 attendees, so don’t delay in RSVPing as this will fill up.

Note: please be careful and safe in providing any personal contact information in any public forum, like meetup.com.

In an effort to reduce no shows for space-limited events, we are now tracking those who fail to show up and do not change their RSVP beforehand. After three strikes you’re out – meaning that you will not be able to attend future space-limited VSDC events. It is unfair to those on the waitlist and to the restaurant when there are no-shows.

Plant-Based Cooking with Apples and Pears
2023-10-04 18:00 - 20:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Portland, Portland, OR, 97236, United States
Join us to make healthy breakfasts, snacks, and desserts with the quintessentially fall fruits, apples and pears. Learn about these fruits’ amazing nutritional properties—including fiber and anti-inflammatory antioxidants—and explore the different varieties of each and what makes each special. Make a few new dishes yourself and enjoy them again and again.
All recipes are oil- and refined-sugar free as well as completely plant-based.
Here are the recipes we will make (subject to change):

Pear compote

Apple or pear steel-cut oats

Apple crisp

Apple or pear cake

The class takes place over Zoom. It is offered through Portland Community College, and anyone can register — you do not need to live in Oregon. You will receive a Zoom meeting link about 48 hours before the class.
The class format is “optional cook-along.” I send the recipes and prep instructions to all students about a week ahead of time. This gives you time to gather ingredients for any recipes you’d like to cook along with me as I demonstrate them over Zoom. The class climate is informal and interactive, and my co-host and I check in with those who are cooking along to make sure they aren’t having any problems.
Registration link will be available in August. Price: $29 tuition + $3 fees. 50% discount on tuition for Oregon residents 62 years and older.
