Cooking Class: Explore Plant-Based Moroccan-Inspired Cuisine

Get tips on how to make a Moroccan-inspired meal with Buffalo's own Chef Alexa!

Next on our plant-based cooking journey with Chef Alexa, we are off to Morocco, a beautiful country in North Africa where dishes are layered with sweet and spicy, earthy and bright flavors. Morocco is known for its spices, which grow abundantly there, as well as its tagines, vegetable dishes, couscous and much more!

A plant-based diet focuses on natural, minimally-processed foods made from plants that meet our daily nutritional needs, and it encourages a healthy lifestyle. These classes will share the simple how-to’s of plant-based cooking: how to cook with different ingredients, how to substitute proteins, how to use various cooking methods to make your meal delicious. You will receive some great options and recipes for plant-based and vegan mains, sides, desserts and appetizers.

The goal is to make vegetables the star of the plate and provide flavorful dishes that are “heart-healthy, high-fiber and low-sugar for healthy aging.”
