Here in West Palm Beach, the only cooking demo they have for Publix is the 'Apron' s' meals with the recipe cards to accompany their cooking demo for a certain dish...do not know of any cooking classes here. (not that I'm looking for one) <br /><br />So nice that you and your daughter had this special 'cooking class' together. Such a happy and sweet photo of you! My favorite is the grilled vegetable sandwich on the ciabatta...yumm!<br /><br />Love Quinoa salad with the Citrus Vinaigretta...although on your introduction you have written 'Couscous' with the Citrus Vinaigratte! Did you make both? for me, I would love to try it on couscous, as well!
