Raw Foods


We had so much fun at our November Guest Speaker last week. Joline Wondergem was so knowledgeable and motivating. She gave us some delicious things to try. My favorite was the Green Lemonade and the Chia Pudding. I have included the recipes below. I know that a lot of you wanted to come but for whatever reason were not able to. Joline also teaches Raw Food Cooking Classes at the Viking Cooking School in Salt Lake City. A list of the next three classes are listed below. Thank you Joline for such a fascinating class.

November Guest Speaker


Our speaker for November is Joline Wondergem. She will be talking to us about a Raw Food or Whole Food diet and she will be bringing samples for us to try. This is a topic that many of you have expressed interest in so I hope we have a good crowd. I hope to see everyone there. Please RSVP to me at youngsurvivorsisters@gmail.com.
December is a busy month for all of us so we are not going to have a guest speaker. Remember to keep February 26th open for our annual Celebration of Life Dinner sponsored by Dr. Marga Massey. More information will be available later.
