60 Plant Ave. Hosts Cooking Demonstration
|
Another great employee wellness event occurred for our staff, courtesy of Cigna! Our 60 Plant Avenue office in Hauppauge, which operates programs like
Chance to Advance
and
Community Service
, held a cooking demonstration with Starlight Tyler, a nutritionist from Starlight Cooking. She taught employees about eating balanced and nourishing meals, and then led them through some recipes. They made a chipotle salad with chicken and made a tasty drink of mint water with strawberries. Yum!
