Learn more about monthly nutrition and wellness events, designed to offer engaging comprehensive education. From pop-ups and kitchen skills classes to dining line takeovers and monthly newsletters, there are many opportunities across the Forty Acres to connect with the UHD registered dietitians.

Registered Dietitian Pop-Ups

Catch our team at one of our many pop-ups across the Forty Acres. While each event is different, you can expect fun, interactive activities that provide practical nutrition tips in a relaxed, approachable environment. Learning about balanced eating has never been easier or more enjoyable

Cooking Demonstrations

Looking for a hands-on cooking experience? Join one of our small group sessions, all led by student dietetic assistants. At each session, you’ll learn to create delicious, stress-free meals in a fun and supportive setting. You’ll be able to take your crafted dish home, along with easy-to-follow instructions for recreating it in your own space.

Creation Kitchen

Throughout the academic year, you’ll get to sample UHD registered dietitian-designed meals at our Curated Cravings line takeovers in J2 and Kins Dining. If you’re curious about how to create those dishes yourself, join us in the Creation Kitchen for interactive cooking experiences that recreate our Curated Cravings offerings. You’ll be joined by a UHD chef and the registered dietitians, so no experience is necessary - just bring your appetite.

Navigating Your First Kitchen

Whether you’re living off campus or plan to in the future, the UHD registered dietitians host a curated series of classes designed to make your first kitchen experience easy and fun. Gain confidence and start learning to cook like a pro at this interactive series that teaches vital culinary skills. This is the perfect setting for first-time chefs and those looking to brush up on familiar skills.
