Flavors of Kentucky

I will begin teaching cooking classes on April 23 at Just Us Girls, 2392 Woodhill Drive.
It will be a basic class on Cooking without Recipes (Sort of). By learning how to combine olive oil and vinegar and your favorite seasonings, you can have a tasty dressing that’s lower in calories and less expensive than ready-made dressings.
Sauteed chicken breasts can be served as the main course, sliced for salads, or chopped for fajitas. Learn to experiment with seasonings, and you can serve chicken five nights a week without getting bored. A perfectly cooked pot of pasta can be paired with a jarred tomato sauce or tossed with butter, garlic and Parmesan cheese – and it’s available in dozens of shapes and sizes.
For dessert, we’ll serve our favorite blackberry cobbler. There’s a little measuring here, but there are ways to make it even simpler.
The class is from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. and cost is $20. Call (859) 269-0312 or leave a comment below.
