The Seasoned Chef Cooking School

• The Seasoned Chef Cooking School got its start in Denver in 1993, offering a variety of classes to every level of cook, from beginner to seasoned chef. Most of Seasoned Chef's courses are hands-on, with limited enrollment, so students receive personalized instruction. Students sample all the food prepared in class and also receive a recipe packet so the meals can be re-created at home.

  Among the vegetarian courses The Seasoned Chef has offered is a Fresh and Flavorful Vegetarian Workshop, which includes such fare as vegetable-tofu potstickers, French onion soup with tortellini and gruyère cheese, seitan sausage sliders, baked portobello lasagna rolls, and tempeh ratatouille with spring vegetables and quinoa.
