Cooking Connections: Turning Leftovers into Left-’Uppers’

Join me tomorrow for a  virtual cooking school class called Turning Leftovers into Left-‘Uppers’ as part of the Cooking Connections series on The Motherhood with celebrity chef, George Duran!  

When: Tuesday, November 15, at 1 p.m. ET.  It will last 30 minutes.

Where: TheMotherhood – here is the link to the page where the class will be held:http://www.themotherhood.com/talk/show/id/62304

About the class: With Thanksgiving just around the corner, we will focus on methods for upgrading leftovers into another special meal, rather than simply re-heating them, making sandwiches or throwing them away.  Celebrity chef George Duran will join us via live video feed to demonstrate one of his Thanksgiving left-‘upper’ recipes and answer any questions you might have.  You can use the text chat beneath the video player to ask questions and share your own ideas!

The U.S. generates 34 million tons of waste each year, and 14 percent of that is from food scraps alone.  We don’t want anyone’s Thanksgiving leftovers to become a statistic this holiday season!  Instead, you can get and share suggestions during this class and turn to recipe website ReadySetEat.com for quick and easy ideas on turning those leftovers into left-‘uppers.’

I’ll be there with nine other bloggers to co-host the class, and I hope you’ll join us!
