ClassGraphic Blue Zones are regions where people regularly live vibrant, active lives past 100 years old. Blue Zones official recommendation is one serving of beans per day! This is likely because they are the unsung heroes of the world’s healthiest diets. They are budget-friendly, eco-friendly, nutritional powerhouses packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and antioxidants that help lower cholesterol, balance blood sugar, and keep you full and energized. 
Join Elizabeth for a hands-on cooking experience to discover how versatile beans are as you prepare and taste a variety of mouthwatering bean-based dishes inspired by Mediterranean and global cuisines. Learn the science behind why beans are central to longevity and favorite tips for cooking them to perfection. Learn easy cooking methods and simple techniques to boost flavor and make beans easy to digest whether you’re cooking from scratch or starting with canned. You will go home with your new longevity secrets and bean cooking skills, and of course you can keep the delicious, adaptable recipes we share with you on registration!
