By |

The Giant Co. of Carlisle, Pa., is inviting shoppers to jump-start the new year with tips and recipe inspiration for creating balanced and affordable meals and snacks. Its team of dietitians is offering free, live classes via Zoom for families and chefs of all ages this January and February. 

“Bring more balance to your meal planning this year,” Holly Doan, dietitian with The Giant Co., said in a release. “Whether incorporating more produce, filling up with fiber or trying some new quick and easy meals, let The Giant Company dietitians help you start fresh in 2023.”

Here’s a look at The Giant Co.’s dietitian classes offered in the next couple of months:

  • Produce Spotlight: Join the dietitians every Monday at 12 p.m. in January to explore seasonal produce and all the ways it strengthens immune systems with featured recipes like Thai Mango and Cucumber Salad and Peanut Butter and Banana French Toast. Then in February, the dietitians explore red, yellow, green and blue color groups and the many benefits of eating a rainbow of fruits and veggies.
  • Wellbeing Workshops: In January, discover new finds and familiar favorites in the Guiding Star-rated products in each grocery department throughout a virtual store tour series. Celebrate Heart Health Month in February with classes like Mediterranean diet, filling up with fiber and heart-healthy flavors.
  • Build a Balanced: In January, keep your family warm and satisfied all winter long with inspiration and recipes from the dietitians’ Build a Balanced Soup series Tuesdays at 12 p.m. in honor of National Soup Month. In February, the series continues highlighting easy and affordable ideas for building a balanced spaghetti night, salad, dessert and oatmeal bowl.
  • Family Meals at 5: The Giant Co. dietitians are here to help build easy, quick and balanced meals in under 30 minutes every Tuesday at 5 p.m. January classes feature a Take 5 theme, where recipes like corn-stuffed peppers and teriyaki pork and pineapple with rice will be five or less ingredients. Then in February, stay in and celebrate Valentine’s evening with sirloin steak with asparagus and tomato orzo.

The Giant Co. dietitians are also kicking off the new year with some special classes on select Thursdays at 7 p.m. Consumers can check out Ask the Dietitian classes on Jan. 5 and Feb. 23, Movie Trivia Night for National Popcorn Day on Jan. 19 and Big Game Party on Feb. 9.
