Cooking with PKD: A Plant-Based Approach

Cooking with PKD: A Plant-Based Approach is a four-part cooking series focusing on increasing participants’ understanding and skills in preparing plant-based healthy meals with a focus on dietary concerns of people affected by PKD.

Each session will be a one-hour chef-led interactive cooking session that will be live streamed and recorded for participants who are not able to participate in person, and wish to participate from home.

Session topics include:

• Intro to a plant-based diet, shopping on a budget
• Cooking low sodium, high potassium meals
• Cooking plant-based traditional Mexican food
• Cooking for the holidays

We encourage participants to attend all four sessions as each session will build on knowledge from the prior session.

Participants who complete all four in-person sessions will receive a $10 gift card incentive. *In-person cooking sessions are limited to 16 participants; chef instruction, cooking supplies, and food are provided free of charge. Spanish translation is available.

Space is limited!
