Get Cooking

Don't let November pass you by - there are too many cuisines to try!

We've still got openings in a few classes this month:

🥧 This Sunday, November 16, bake up some buttery, flaky galettes, both savoury and sweet!

🍚 Or perfect the rich, creamy risotto, Tuesday, November 18. Plus, learn to use up the leftovers of this Italian favourite into golden, crispy arancini balls!

🍛 Don't miss an evening of Indian weeknight cooking; the perfect blend of punchy flavour and laidback fun, on Thursday, November 20.

And more! Explore our whole lineup of November and December classes, live now on our website! 😋

Community has always been at the core of what we do. And when anyone in our community has their rights threatened, everyone needs to step up.

This is a defining moment for Alberta. Not just for teachers and workers, but for students, parents, friends, neighbours - all of us. The UCP’s use of the Notwithstanding Clause to ignore Charter rights to force teachers back to work does not protect us; it sets a dangerous and significant precedent for the future of our freedom in this province. Make no mistake: they will not stop here. Public education is the backbone of democracy, and if they get away with silencing our teachers, they can - and will - do it to any of us.

Get Cooking proudly and passionately stands with Alberta’s teachers. We cannot sit silently while rights are rewritten before our eyes, and we hope you won’t either. So help us make some noise.

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Today we're celebrating all things pumpkin - you can make so much more with them than just jack-o'-lanterns!

For a decadent dessert, try a Pumpkin Cheesecake (shown here with adorable pumpkin biscuits!) 🧡 This autumnal gourd is so delicious in savoury meals as well, like our cozy Pumpkin Risotto or a classic stuffed Pumpkin Ravioli. Or add it to a spicy Thai Red Curry to soak up those delicious flavors! 🍛
