Leaf Cooking Classes in Belin

Chepe's wife, Paula, has been diagnosed with early onset diabetes. We talked about it a couple of weeks ago and agreed to go to her house to show her how to cook green leaves in different ways. She and Chepe organized a number of neighbouring women to come as well. We had 12 women of various ages. Yeni, Maricella and I cooked up 6 different types of leaves, made green, Moringa powder tortillas, made peanut butter and peanut butter/banana milkshakes. All of the recipes were well received. Phew.
