Participants worked together to cook a healthy homemade lunch and dessert combo at the Southern Ute Museum’s kitchen facility.

Southern Ute Food Distribution helps to provide some of the ingredients each week, including bison, chicken, fruits and pastas. The diabetic friendly meals have ranged from elk marinara sauce over whole grain pasta to turkey veggie tacos and even a banana berry crumble for dessert.

Shining Mountain Health and Wellness teamed up with Community Health Resources to lead the Take Charge fall diabetes class on Tuesday, Nov. 19.
