What’s it all about?
Join Jenny to learn recipes for two comfort food treats which happen to be vegan and quite healthy! This is the perfect class for those of us stuck at home but looking for a healthy version of our favourite snacks so you can feel a little less guilty on the next trip to the fridge or pantry. These are so yummy they could become addictive!
