Heart Healthy Mediterranean

Discover the vibrant flavors and proven health benefits of the Mediterranean way of eating! Known for supporting heart health and longevity, the Mediterranean diet emphasizes fresh, plant-based foods, healthy fats like olive oil, whole grains, and lean proteins such as fish and poultry—all while keeping red meat and added sugars to a minimum.

In this engaging virtual cooking demonstration, you’ll learn how to prepare a simple yet delicious meal inspired by the Mediterranean region. As the instructor guides you through each step, you’ll gain practical tips on how to incorporate these nourishing ingredients into your everyday cooking and understand their relation to heart health.

Throughout the class, the instructor will share easy ingredient swaps and protein options to accommodate a variety of dietary needs and preferences—so you can tailor each dish to suit your lifestyle.

By the end of the session, you’ll walk away with a collection of wholesome, flavorful recipes that you and your family will love—and your heart will thank you for. A complete recipe packet, including ingredient lists and equipment notes, will be provided afterward so you can recreate these Mediterranean-inspired meals in your own kitchen.

This class will be recorded and a one-week link to the recording will be shared with all registered participants. To receive incentive points, attend at least 80% of the live session or listen to the entire recording within one week. Request disability accommodations and access info.
