Every week throughout the school year, children ages 812 from the Greater Newark area gather in Hannah’s Kitchen at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center for fun, handson cooking lessons to learn how to prepare their own nutritious and healthy foods. Dietitian nutritionists at RWJBarnabas Health show them how to cook with nutritious ingredients, how to read a recipe, kitchen safety tips, measuring techniques, knife skills and more.

Rutgers University football players Kaj Sanders and Shaquan Loyal returned to their hometown of Newark to join kids in Hannah’s Kitchen for a smoothie competition! The players picked their teams and created smoothies using a list of healthy ingredients.
