Recipes for Better Health

“After Ulukhaktok, we are planning to have two cooking shows in Paulatuk, as the increasing crowds are making it impossible to accommodate everyone at one seating,” said Barbara Armstrong project leader for Monitoring Our Moms Study. The nutrition show sponsored by IRC has been making its rounds around the ISR communities, and each one is “bigger than the next.”

“The events in Tuktoyaktuk and Aklavik were perfect,” she said. “There were tons of happy people, lots of great food, the audience welcomed the information about country food, the give-a-ways, and we had requests for more workshops like this. We even have had requests for more cook-booklets, so if someone missed the event, they could still have a cookbook, as the word is spreading quickly that they are spectacular!”
