Published: Thursday, April 19, 2007
Approximately 700,000 Americans suffer strokes every year. It is the third leading cause of death in the United States. Kicking off Stroke Awareness Month on May 2, the Healthy Living Kitchen delivers stroke information and special brunch recipes and ideas for welcoming spring in a healthy way. Whether a quiet meal for two or the whole family, learn healthy cooking tips, receive instruction and recipes and enjoy a great meal.
Healthy Living Kitchen, part of the University of Tennessee Medical Center’s Heart Lung Vascular Institute, will present “Spring Brunch: Delicious and Nutritious” on May 2 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Executive Chef Monty Lowans will prepare a special brunch just for the class. Some of the brunch recipes will include homemade turkey sausage, modified shrimp-and-grits tarts and pomegranate fruit salad.
In addition, attendants will receive a presentation by Jennifer Henry, stroke coordinator at the UT Medical Center, on stroke where you can learn about stroke warning signs and stroke risk factors.
The class costs $20, which includes the meal and education.
