Barbara and Pat's Macrobiotic Dinner

Topics: General/Preventative, Macrobiotic, Vegan-Specific

The focus of this meeting is macrobiotic cooking and related healthy lifestyle ideas. This dinner is nearly (but not 100%) gluten-free, as we may prepare food in the traditional way using Japanese shoyu (soy sauce) and barley miso; thus, this meeting is not appropriate for people with Celiac disease. All meals will be organic, seasonal, without sugar or other processed food, and dairy-free. Vegans, vegetarians and omnivores are welcome. Please note that our homes have cats and stairs. This meeting is vegan.

We recognize the common-sense link between food and health, and are interested in exploring ideas related to:

• Incorporating seasonal, organic, and non-processed foods into one's diet.
• Understanding the energetics of food to help well-being.
• Emphasis on historically-proven, traditionally healthful cuisines, lifestyle choices and health practices.
• Adjusting cooking styles and food choices for each individual's health.

This event is usually held every fourth Monday from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. The fee per person averages $12, but varies based on the costs of certain ingredients.
