Eat Well: Cooking Demo starring the famous film food - Vegan Moussaka
Advertisement
You're trying to incorporate more Mediterranean-style cooking into your repertoire, but you live with someone (or maybe you are yourself) really craving familiar deep-dish comfort foods...sound familiar?
Get ready to experiment with us in the kitchen and enjoy this vegan moussaka recipe. Join this FREE hands-on and all-ages class, meet other locals, and learn to make a new dish that feels REALLY great! This recipe traditionally promotes heart health from olive oil and lower saturated fats, while providing essential nutrients like vitamins C, K, potassium, and magnesium. The vegan swaps mean less bloating from heavy dairy and reduced overall cholesterol in the dish, while lentils keep your plate protein-packed and fibrous to help you feel full and digest the meal smoothly. In some areas, heritage spice blends (like the one we will use in our workshop) feature cinnamon and turmeric, each with their own anti-inflammatory benefits, but it's really the eggplants that bring it home with a low glycemic index that helps your body balance blood sugar levels.

The door on 6th St. and the push-button activated door in the parking lot near the alley will both be unlocked for attendees.
NOTE: this May cooking demonstration with a brand new recipe is the first in our 2026 film series, which is all about food that plays a core role in movies and film! What do you mean you've never heard of The Attack of the Giant Moussaka (1999) sci-fi masterpiece? We guess you're off the hook. After all, Koutras’ work was not as successful as John DeBello’s tomato-themed Attack of the Killer Tomatoes (1978), which spawned three sequels: Return of the Killer Tomatoes!, Killer Tomatoes Strike Back! and Killer Tomatoes Eat France!.
