Cooking Class “Midvale Senior Center”

My name is Kevin owner of Western Stairlifts and I volunteer at the Midvale, Utah Senior Center were I teach a cooking class.The recipes are for meals you can prepare in 15 minutes or less and small portions for one to two people. My class is called “Cooking For One”. I usually teach my class every third Thursday of the month at 10:30 am. I have made many friends over the past year at the senior center. They really look forward having me and my wife “helper show up once a month. I thoroughly enjoy giving back to the community I work in!

I would like to share the most popular recipe I’ve made so far:
