Cook tasty plant-based dishes!
Join us for our May cooking class and learn how to make yummy vegan chickpea potato breakfast hash! You can cook along or watch Tamuno show us how. And since it’s online you can do it from where ever you feel comfortable.
Tamuno enjoys sharing his love of cooking plant-based dishes with everyone. He will be showing you how to make a super savory and protein packed recipe using chickpeas and potatoes. This is a great breakfast dish but is equally fantastic for dinner. The chickpea is a very versatile bean. It is high in protein and soaks of up the flavors from whatever seasoning you use. Learn how to make this simple dish and find a new meal option for yourself. Its also great for entertaining friends and family.
Tamuno Imbu, our Community Organizer and cooking class instructor will walk you through the preparation. First we will prepare the potatoes since they take the longest to cook. While that is cooking we will get into the spices and seasoning. The whole meal can be prepared from start to finish within one hour.
If you want to cook along, gather your ingredients (see list below) and a food processor before joining us. See you online!

All about Cooking With Tamuno classes
Cooking With Tamuno is an online cooking class offered on the third Monday of most months from 5:30 – 6:30 pm. CAA’s Community Organizer, Tamuno Imbu is our resident chef extraordinaire. Each month, he selects a vegan recipe that is particularly tasty and easy to make. During the class, he slowly and clearly demonstrates the steps to make the meal. He is also more than willing to take questions — he wants to be sure you walk away with the ability to make each recipe on your own.
He shares the ingredients ahead of time so that you can purchase them and cook along in real time. But it’s also okay to just sit back, watch, and learn. No cooking experience is required as he gears this for people who are new to plant-based cooking.
All are welcome to cook
Everyone is welcome at these fun online events. Join Tamuno and learn some plant-based cooking skills, all while having an opportunity to meet some of the youth and other participants. You will come away with new recipes and some handy cooking tips. Be prepared to impress your friends and family with your new-found skills! Or better yet, bring them along to the class so they can get these skills for themselves too.
Young people frequently join the classes through relationships with partner organizations. Tamuno also works with these youth in other ways, including leadership programming and introducing them to the issues surrounding living a more compassionate lifestyle.
