(No Longer Avail) Girls Night Out! Party w/ Your Plants! Vegan Apps, Herb-Infused Cocktails & More!

Whether you or your gal pals are strictly vegan, or you're simply trying to expand your entertaining repertoire, tonight, you’ll learn that plant-based party food and cocktails (and mocktails) can actually be more delicious and easier to prepare than traditional party foods. You heard me.  

Healthy cooking expert, Chef LaDonna Johnson, is here to show you how it’s done.  She knows that the key to a great party is for the host to have as much fun as the guests and that’s why she’s so eager to share some of her favorite plant-based appetizer and cocktail recipes, all simple to make, and guaranteed to knock your socks off!

You’ll sit back and relax as Chef LaDonna teaches you how to put together a fabulous Vegan Charcuterie board. Then you’ll learn more delicious plant-based appetizers like Jackfruit Sliders (they're sooooo good!) with homemade artisan BBQ sauce (yum), a creamy vegan dip made with a surprise ingredient and served with fresh-made flatbread, and more.

We'll pair these gems with a lovely summer cocktails made with fresh fruit and herbs like lemon drop and pomegranate martinis, beer spritzers, and a vodka fruit lemonade…she’ll also show you how to  fancy-up your ice cubes. Who knew?

Finally, you’ll learn presentation tips for putting together beautiful trays that impress, and we’ll end our cooking party with a quick spiked frozen dessert. Not to worry, the dessert and all of the cocktails taught tonight can be enjoyed with or without the liquor. Choices….we love that!

What a fun night out with your girlfriends!
