 RTE’s Health Squad nutritionist Paula Mee and chef extraordinaire Eunice Power have teamed up together with Waterford Stanley to raise over €4000 for a very worthy appeal.
The dynamic duo attracted over 250 people to the Waterford Stanley Nutrition seminar at Dooley’s Hotel on Thursday February 7th. The event raised €4000, money which goes towards the South East Cancer Foundation’s campaign to raise €1 million for their new Respite Care Centre in the city.
Paula Mee offered answers to the simple questions, such as what’s good to eat and how can we make the best choices for ourselves and our families? From super foods to organics, Paul Mee cut through some of the confusion and helped people to make informed decisions about how to buy, prepare, cook and enjoy food.
The proof of the pudding is in its eating and Eunice Power of Powersfield House and author of The Waterford Stanley cookbook was busy cooking and putting Paula’s advice to good use. The culinary whiz even came up with a special dish on the night - the Paula Mee Chilli Non Carne, a veggie take on the tradition beef dish.
Everyone on the night went away with new nutrition knowledge and recipes along with packed goodie bags courtesy of Ardkeen Quality Food Stores and Flahavan’s.
Commenting on the success of the event, Eileen Slattery of Waterford Stanley said the company is delighted with the tally raised; with the feedback from guests on the evening and how informative and enjoyable they found the evening.
“We are thrilled that we can hand over this amount of money to the very worthy South East Cancer Foundation. We would like to thank everyone who came along on the night to support the charity.”
