Thank you, teachers! From long-time Lunch Bunch teachers like Pam to fresh faces like Taylor, we are so grateful for everything you do to build students' skills and love for food🥗❤️ Teaching gave me a lot of confidence cause I was always really shy and not really comfortable talking in front of a lot of people. It made me realize I can do that and I always feel so happy everytime I leave the class, I can’t wait to go back to the next one! As a food lover I love all the recipes and every week I have the opportunity to learn some new ones (like the kimchi that I didn’t have a clue what it was). But as an Italian, I have to say I looooved pesto pasta and cacio e pepe!! -- Pam, Enrichments Teacher I'm relatively new to Lunch Bunch, I started mid-April and I love it! Honestly, cooking is my passion and just seeing the excitement and passion coming from students makes my heart melt! I hope that if my students have taken anything from me, it would be that cooking is all about creativity and that recipes are important but you can always add your own spin on it! -- Chef Taylor, Enrichments Teacher Check out https://lnkd.in/gkWyT58w to add culinary enrichments to your school programming!👩🍳🔥 #JoinLunchBunch #AfterSchool #Enrichments #CookingClassForKids #TeacherAppreciationWeek

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! We are highlighting two amazing teachers, Gracen and Eddie, who contribute so much to our students' learning and growth opportunities🌟👩🍳📚 Students really can learn so much from cooking! From math to science to reading and writing. We've not only taught students how to be ambassadors in their communities about making healthy choices but also how to incorporate and encourage their learning inside the classroom and utilizing those skills within our cooking lessons. They've also gotten to try lots of tasty foods, which I know they carry with them! My favorite Lunch Bunch recipe has to be Pesto Pasta! The tastiest pesto you've ever tried and I love working with students with different equipment, like the blender, to show how to make a super healthy, yet delicious, pasta sauce they may have never experienced before. (Our French Toast is a close second!) --Gracen, Enrichments Manager Teaching with Lunch Bunch has been a heartwarming experience, being able to take the knowledge and skills that I’ve learned over the past 15+ years in the culinary industry and share it with younger generations is rewarding! We have the power to create future chefs. One of my favorite recipes was the avocado toast with soft boiled egg, as a chef it’s always challenging to master a great yolk but as a teacher and parent, it’s way more of a challenge to try to teach others to do it as well! --Chef Eddie, Enrichments Teacher Check out https://lnkd.in/gkWyT58w to add culinary enrichments to your school programming!🌈🥗 #JoinLunchBunch #TeacherAppreciationWeek #AfterSchool #CookingClassforKids #CulinaryEnrichments
