In this free culinary-nutrition session, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Chef Michele Redmond will share ways to help people be more confident and successful making plant-rich meals with convenience foods.

Meals prepped at home are pivotal in helping people eat well, but barriers include negative perceptions toward convenience foods, uncertainty in picking nutritious ones and the skills to leverage them into easy meals. We’ll explore the nutrient-density range of convenience foods, how to define them and simplify nutrition for a plant-rich pantry that allows flexible and affordable homemade meals. Then we’ll brainstorm ways to make meals from Chef Michele’s pantry that encourage food diversity and more home-prepped meals. Takeaways will include:

• Use a simple nutrition guideline that helps people select nutrient-rich convenience foods
• Identify several skills that help people simplify food prep and save time
• Brainstorm affordable, delicious meals from a plant-rich pantry
• Increase awareness around negative terms and perceptions of convenience foods that may create barriers to nutritious foods
