It promotes healthy and sustainable living practices concerning food, and classes are offered for both the child/children and their parents. Young Palettes is part of a new awareness of affordable, healthy meals for the kids, families and athletes:
“We believe that anyone can live healthy on a budget without sacrificing the pleasure of eating. Our goal is to help people turn away from cheap, unhealthy, processed food. Theywill lose weight and feel healthier with the guidance of our recipes, by attending our classes, searching our web site, using our cookbooks, attending our training camps, events, and participating in our community outreach.”
Young Palettes started under TXPK in an effort to help practitioners acquire the proper type of fuel for every stage of their training, meeting them at their level. We feel the partnership will create healthy lifestyles through physical fitness and nutrition.
