Abstract

Barriers to implementation of culinary medicine in resident training include lack of facilities, administrative support, and community engagement. Twenty-five family medicine residents were teamed with 17 high school culinary arts students to prepare recipes aligned with the Mediterranean diet (MED) and the USDA low, moderate, and liberal cost food plans. The workshop took place in the high school teaching kitchens. A pre-survey informed the planning committee's design of a 4-h hands-on workshop that was considered a success. Post-surveys documented improved resident confidence and skills in recommending MED to their patients and interaction with their own peers and high school students, as well as enjoyment by all participants of this hands-on approach.
