Summer Memories by Anthonia Ibrahim

My favorite memories this summer involve discovery – kids discovering new foods, recipes, and skills. I was inspired watching the reserved middle schoolers gain confidence and take on more responsibility in the kitchen each week. The younger students always came ready to learn, collaborate, and explore new foods and concepts. Each week, several students shared that they were excited to recreate our recipes at home with their families. Açai bowls and smoothies were class favorites!
