One feature of the Mediterranean way of eating is a big focus on plants, along with olive oil, wine and a little fish. In this virtual cooking class, we’ll lean into plant-based dishes that deliver your favorite Med flavors without eggs, dairy or meat:

• Smoky “Cheese” Bruschetta with Tomatoes and Basil
• Spanish Chickpea Fritters with Romesco Sauce
• Arugula, Tomatoes and Walnuts in Walnut Oil Vinaigrette
• Spaghetti with Seared Brussels Sprouts, Olives and Garlic.

If you like, you can download a list of ingredients to have on hand. Class will be led by chef Robin Asbell, an author, educator and natural foods chef. It is part of AARP Minnesota’s 2024 cooking series.
