Go to ‘school’ for healthy cooking in workshops at Randolph Cooperative Extension


ASHEBORO – Sign up for the “Cook Smart, Eat Smart Cooking School” hosted by the Asheboro Public Library at Randolph County Cooperative Extension, and learn how to prepare simple, healthy and delicious foods for you and your family.

The four free workshops, taught by Cooperative Extension Family and Consumer Sciences Agent Jeannie Leonard, will take place from 6-8 p.m. Thursdays, September 22 thru October 13.

Space is limited; call the Asheboro library at 336-318-6803 to sign up. Because each class sets the stage for the next one, participants should attend all four sessions.

“Cook Smart, Eat Smart” keeps it simple — simple, healthy preparation techniques, simple ingredients and simple equipment. Each session contains several basic cooking techniques and other topics related to preparing and eating meals at home, while delivering tips on stretching food dollars while still eating healthily.

Leonard moderates the Facebook page “Jeannie’s Kitchen,” where she shares easy and affordable seasonal recipes.

The workshops are provided by the library’s Margaret C. Taylor Memorial Culinary Arts Fund.

Cooperative Extension is located at 1003 S. Fayetteville Street, Asheboro.
