Diabetes Patient Coordinator, Lisa Smith helps SUIMA students cut vegetables for their healthy mini pizzas as part of the Cooking Matters class taught on Monday, March 27 at the SunUte Community Center.

Students personalized their mini pizzas with a variety of vegetables, cheese, and slices of pepperoni. Cooking Matters works with local partners nationally to help families with healthy and affordable meals, working to help lead healthier lives.

Students work hard to cut tomatoes, onions, zucchini, bell peppers, and shred cheese for their pizza toppings. Shining Mountain Health & Wellness employees, Shaw Marie Tso and Lisa Smith led the students through the recipe and taught them about the importance of healthy eating.
