Teens in the Kitchen

If you are a teen who likes to cook (or just likes to eat and try new foods), then this is the program for you!

At each program, participants will learn new cooking techniques and follow recipes to create delicious dishes to taste.

Then they can take home the recipes so they can use the skills they learned to recreate them for their friends and family.
