Over the past 9 months. I have collaborated with the SNAP-ED program assistant on providing 10 programs to 8 distinctly separate audiences on 7 different topics. The audiences varied from Homemakers to special needs adults to senior assisted living residents to abuse shelter residents.  The topics included: teaching different cuts of meat and how to economically choose meat to proper cooking techniques for various cuts; healthy, non-traditional ways to prepare eggs; how to grill with special needs adults; how to cut up a whole chicken to save money; cooking wild game; and how to cook and utilize lesser used chicken parts and pieces. The main objectives of all the lessons were how to healthily cook various items, how you can have good nutrition economically, and how to try new methods to diversify your diet. The feed back so far has been very positive, with much including that the participants have used the different cuts and cooking methods at home. This is allowing the clientele to save money and improve their diet at the same time and to take advantage of basically free wild game to using meat cuts that are on sale that they may never have used before. New classes are already planned for the future to continue this collaboration.
