July Cooking School Class: Summer Berry and Cherry Desserts
See you Tuesday, July 21 at 5 PM CST
Mark your calendars for our next cooking school class for members! This month’s Substack Live cooking class is scheduled for Tuesday, July 21, at 5 PM CST. If you’re a paid subscriber, you’ll need to upgrade to the Cooking School level for just $35 more for the entire year! If you’re not a paid subscriber, join us for 12 cooking classes and all the paid benefits of being a Smart in the Kitchen subscriber for $85.
Cast-Iron Blueberry Cobbler (Gluten-Free)
Cherry Puff Pastry Hand Pies
Nectarine, Plum and Blackberry Crisp (Gluten-Free)
Note: If you don’t have a cast-iron pan for the cobbler, any oven-safe high-sided 8-inch pan will work. Or a ceramic baking dish! You may want to place a sheet pan on the shelf below the cobbler pan so any berries that bubble over are caught on the sheet pan rather than the bottom of your stove.
Join me live on Substack for monthly cooking classes. Watch on the app or on your computer. The class recording is accessible for paid members and the recipes are below.
Save the date for our August class. I’ll be teaching from my new kitchen in Houston, and I’ll definitely give you all a quick behind-the-scenes tour before we get started. Monday, August 10 at 5 PM CST. We’ll make an easy summer dinner that won’t heat up your whole house!
Class recipes, a grocery list and the link for the class will be emailed to paid Cooking School subscribers on Monday!

Class Recipes
I’ll be teaching this class from my kitchen in Idaho. I scheduled the live video for 4 pm Mountain Time, which will be 5 pm Central Time. The Substack app and website didn't let me choose a time zone when I scheduled the class, so I hope there aren’t any time zone glitches (meaning: I hope I did this right!).
Other News
Sincere apologies for not hosting a class in June! I mentioned to those of you who were in our May online class that I was worried I might not be able to pull it off, and that proved to be the case. Getting moved out of our house was a lot, to say the least, and about halfway through the month, my kitchen went into storage. I’m planning on an extra holiday-themed class sometime in November or December to make up for it!
Those of you who were part of my original Smart in the Kitchen School should know that I've renewed the class software and I’m keeping my Smart Knife Skills, Smart Meal Plan Formula, Fearless Fish, and other free resources on that site.
Moving forward, I’d love to schedule our monthly classes at the beginning of the month (whenever possible). Comment below if you have a preferred day and time for class. I try to rotate what works best for the majority!

Hi Marcia. I like 5 or 6 in the afternoon. Really any day Monday - Thursday. I still am having a hard time figuring out how to log on to the Substack classes. I've missed a couple because i couldn't figure it out. I think I'm too old for this!
