Recently we did our first live cooking class in #RLAB. The class was designed for a women's wellness retreat, so we focused on quick, healthy meals anyone can do at home. In this video I demonstrate a couple of my weekly gotos that have helped me lose 100 lbs over the last two years, including seared salmon with yogurt dillsauce, salmon tacos, and stirfried shrimp in high protein peanut curry.

Since all work and no play makes for a dull women's retreat, we also had Wine & Spirits educator Dani Morris demonstrate some of her favorite low calorie, batch cocktails that can be served 'almost' guilt free at your next gettogether.
