August 29, 2013 By HLFM

This recipe was demonstrated by Katie Freer and her children’s cooking class kids (ages 3 to 12) at the Market on June 18. Katie is the founder of Sprouting Chefs, a program that combines her Masters Degree in Early Childhood Education and her culinary talents. Katie always brings her class to Market on Saturdays where each week a new seasonal fruit or vegetable is introduced to the class.
