Teen Cuisine
Teen Cuisine is a cooking and nutrition education program for teens grades 6-12. This curriculum was developed by Virginia Tech and Virginia Cooperative Extension. In Sedgwick County, Expanded Food & Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) can implement this curriculum in any middle school that has at least 50% of their student population receiving free or reduced lunch.
Students will learn:
- Basic nutrition information including MyPlate guidelines and how to read nutrition labels.
- Food safety and food preparation skills including proper cleaning and sanitization, knife safety, and how to read recipes.
- Basic cooking skills that reinforced by making a recipe in every lesson.
- The importance of being physical active every day.
