Our 6th-grade students enjoyed an engaging cooking demonstration on Friday, February 9th, led by Chef Shara Gadomsky from the Happy Heart Corner. Chef Shara prepared a delicious and healthy Corn Salsa for the students to taste, while also encouraging them to explore nutritious foods and embrace new culinary experiences.
During the demonstration, Chef Shara actively involved the students, even incorporating math skills as they helped measure ingredients for the dish. The event was made possible through the support of the AtlantiCare Healthy Schools, Healthy Children program, in which ACS proudly participates.
Christine Guzman from AtlantiCare shared valuable insights with the students, highlighting the importance of incorporating fruits, vegetables, and whole grains into a balanced diet. To make the event more memorable, students received a thoughtful gift of measuring spoons from AtlantiCare, along with a recipe card for the Corn Salsa.
