Learning, Cooking, and Fun Socializing with Ena

As part of our VegOdluka program, we organized joint online and live gatherings where we had the opportunity to socialize, exchange impressions from the program, learn about nutrition, and cook together.
On Saturday, January 20, 2024, we held the event “Druženje sa Enom” (Socializing with Ena) at Bistra Zdrava premises, where Ena Tešić, a nutritionist with a master’s degree and the owner of the Nutrition Counseling Center “Veggae,” gave a lecture and culinary workshop.
This event was open to all interested individuals who wanted to learn more about healthy vegan nutrition, not just participants of this year’s VegOdluka.
Although we received a large number of registrations for the event, weather conditions affected many to cancel their attendance. After beautiful sunny winter days, snow covered the capital city of Bosnia and Herzegovina – Sarajevo – in white, and traffic was difficult that day.
On this occasion, we thank everyone who still came and contributed to this gathering with their presence.
Ena gave a lecture titled „Oznake na namirnicama – kako ih pravilno tumačiti“ (Food Labels – How to Interpret Them Correctly).
When we buy food, we make sure to choose the healthiest options, those with fewer artificial additives, colors, emulsifiers, and preservatives. Labels serve precisely for this purpose – declarations that detail the composition of a specific product and what it contains.
During the presentation, Ena discussed ingredients and macronutrients, and how to recognize vegan and healthy options (hidden sugars and animal products, E numbers, allergens, non-eco-friendly ingredients…).
To our great pleasure, visitors showed a keen interest in the topic and asked questions to which Ena responded.
Following the excellent presentation, a culinary workshop followed where burgers with red bean patties, noodle and chickpea soup, and green smoothies were prepared.
We hope our visitors learned something new and enjoyed tasting the great dishes prepared by Ena.
In a pleasant atmosphere and great company, with shared meals and quality conversations, we concluded this event.
