Food for Thought

Posted on 03/12/2019

This week 21 students worked with Louise Jones from Food for Thought Cookery school, to make healthy and nutritionally valuable sweet treats. The students learnt how to make energy balls, cookies and chocolate that actually benefits our bodies, giving us valuable vitamins and minerals.

All products were dairy free, gluten free, refined sugar free and only used natural sweetners. They used valuable ingredients and Louise explained the nutritional benefits of the foods used.

Each student made the following products:

  • Healthier chocolate with dried fruit, coconut and seeds.
  • Healthy banana cookies with raisins.
  • Energy balls with mango and coconut.

All products were nut free, as we are a nut free school.

Louise works within the local community and educates adults about the benefits of eating healthily and eating naturally. She has worked with countless local businesses and won a rising star award for business and enterprise within Dorset. She also works with adults educating them on gut health and many other subjects.

They asked interesting questions and we all enjoyed the session. Thanks so much also to Louise, for sharing the health benefits of chocolate and other foods, so that we can be healthy for LIFE!
