WHAT TO EXPECT:
Tennyson aims to change one’s perspective on family meals. With the hope to encourage families to spend quality time together whilst enjoying the process of creating a tasty healthy meal followed by the united joy of eating. An opportunity to switch off the television, ditch the takeaway and enjoy a quick, healthy meal, prepared by all family members at the dinner table.
Growing up Tennyson predominately ate pescatarian and through her love of cooking she developed tasty ways to make common vegetables the hero of each dish. Teaching little peeps how to enjoy their food and the flavours so they grow up knowing how to make a healthy tasty meal but also having a healthy relationship with food is important to Tennyson.
Tennyson will also demonstrate how fruits and natural sweeteners can replace sugars without affecting the flavour of the sweet or dessert being made.
The key focus is taking cheap, pantry staple ingredients and showing your young ones how to prepare them in a fun, inventive way. Your children will leave the kitchen feeling motivated and well educated to start making dinner with the family, incorporating minimally processed ingredients into their everyday lives! Who knows- you may even get the occasional night off from cooking!
