Breakfast with Cheryl Forberg, RD and Nutritionist for NBC's The Biggest Loser




Come enjoy a wonderful breakfast with Cheryl Forberg, RD, Award Winning Cookbook author and nutritionist for NBC's The Biggest Loser. If you are a fan of this popular show, you can ask Cheryl questions about what takes place when the cameras are not rolling on the ranch and learn weight loss tips that Cheryl teaches to the Biggest Loser contestants. This full breakfast will even include Cheryl's pumpkin polenta, which will easily help you get in the spirit of the fall days that lie ahead.
All proceeds from this event will go to the American Institute of Wine and Food's Days of Taste Program. The program was modeled after one in France and quickly picked up in our own country, now Days of Taste Dallas helps fourth and fifth graders from the Dallas public schools discover the farm to table concept as well. These students tour the wonderful Dallas Farmer's Market and meet with local farmers and chefs who help to teach them about the delicious local produce and how to grasp enthusiasm for local, fresh ingredients.
Sounds like a wonderful way to start your day and for a great cause!
