Chef AmyLeo will demonstrate how to slice, dice, sear and bake this gorgeous springtime delight in this plant-based class.

Detoxification is a process that your body is doing all the time. Supporting your body’s efforts to maintain balance does not need to include cleansing kits and severe restriction. Instead, a “detox” can be nutritious, delicious and creative. Springtime in the northern hemisphere is a great time to put some intentional effort into this nutrient-hungry process. Join Jesse Haas to demystify the detoxification process and take some seasonal tips home for supporting your body this spring.

What your body, mind and spirit need to feel balanced shifts and changes throughout the seasons, especially in a climate like Minnesota’s where we have 5 distinct seasons. Spring brings a lot of energy up from the earth, which we may experience as forgetfulness, anxiety, lethargy and brain fog. Jesse Haas, functional nutritionist and co-founder of Wellness Minneapolis, draws the connection between the changes we see happening outdoors and what we’re experiencing in ourselves in this conversation about eating seasonally for mental wellness.
