Cooking Class Schedule and Booking Information


It's been a very busy last week here at Season of The Vegan. Last Thursday night I taught a private cooking class in Spearfish, SD. It was a wonderful night filled with delicious food and great people. I love doing these classes as they incorporate two of my favorite things, sharing knowledge and feeding people. For anyone interested in hosting a class, here are the details:

Tofu 101
Learn the basics of cooking with tofu. We'll do an appetizer, main dish, and a dessert that all have tofu as their core ingredient. We'll also go over the different types of tofu and its nutritional value. Students will get to enjoy all the items prepared and receive a copy of the recipes. Cost is $15 per person.

Vegan Baking
Learn how to bake without animal products and never miss what's missing. We'll go over substitutions and how to make baked goods that everyone will enjoy. This class will have an assortment of recipes ranging from Cupcakes, to Breads, to Cheesecake, and from Savory to Sweet. Students will get to enjoy all the items prepared and receive a copy of the recipes. Cost is $20 per person.

Party Food
Learn tricks for perfect party food. We'll go over both hot and cold appetizers as well as quick and easy desserts. Students will get to enjoy all the items prepared and receive a copy of the recipes. Cost is $15 per person.

Meal Planning 101
In a rut with your meal plan? In this class we'll go over the basics of designing a vegan meal plan that incorporates variety and how to eat great on a budget. We'll make an appetizer, salad, main dish, side dish, and a dessert. Students will get to enjoy all the items prepared and receive a copy of the recipes. Cost is $25 per person.

Classes run 2 to 3 hours. Class size is normally 5 to 10 people depending on the size of the host's kitchen. Host is responsible for half of the grocery cost which averages $30 to $50 depending on the class. This cost ensures that I am able to cover all my costs and still make a small profit from teaching the class. Students often split this cost and add it to the per student fee.

Feel free to email me at seasonofthevegan@gmail.com for additional information. I can currently be booked to teach in the Black Hills region of South Dakota until the end of August. I will be available to teach in Central and Southern Illinois for the month of September.
