Seven Days of Dinner
Jessica Prentice

"Oh, what to have for dinner?" How many times a week do you ask yourself this question? In this day-long seminar, Bay Area chef, author, and entrepreneur Jessica Prentice will share how she answers this question, and will prepare a week's worth of different dinners, each of which can be the basis for many variations. If you master a few simple dishes, you can experience a great deal of relief from what can seem like a daily ordeal. The emphasis will be on practicality, nutrition, and ease in order to help you nourish your family on a daily basis with a minimum of fuss and stress. Short-cuts and tips will be shared, along with recipes.
