Chefs at Michigan Technological University share secrets to healthy eating

Michigan Technological University chefs are running seminars on healthy eating for faculty and staff. Executive Chef Eric Karvonen recently prepared a meal with what he calls "super foods" and taught the class how to cook them at home. Salmon and chicken were the entrees with blueberries, wild rice, tabouleh, spinach and other healthy choices added to the meal.

Food Services' Ernie Beutler will be leading a gluten-free workshop soon, preparing recipes and explaining why people should consider gluten-free eating.

The events are part of an overall strategy to encourage healthy eating on and off campus.
