Description
Healthy eating: An important component to the overall health and well-being of individuals, and a major focus of Bay Pines VA Healthcare System dietitians in service to serve Veterans. One of many tools used to help Veterans achieve a more balance and nutritious diet is the Healthy Teaching Kitchen – an hour-long cooking demonstration hosted by VA dieticians intended to teach Veterans and their families’ healthy cooking skills. Recently, a demonstration was conducted by Bay Pines dietetic interns Jennifer Peters and Kellyn Shollenberger for Veterans who participate in the Bay Pines cancer support group. The menu for the day: Mediterranean quinoa salad with avocado lime dressing.
