Giant’s dietitians kick off free pantry makeover virtual series in January

Giant’s dietitians are ready to help customers start the new year with a refreshed pantry in their pantry makeover virtual series every Thursday in Jan. at 12 p.m. Each week, the dietitians will discuss a different category of items to keep on hand, chat about their favorite pantry staples and even provide revitalized recipe inspiration.

Here’s the January schedule for the virtual series:

• The Jan. 4 class is protein-packed with a recipe for tuna and white bean salad.
• The Jan. 11 class focuses on pantry-friendly fruits and veggies, including a quick carrot cake oatmeal recipe.
• The Jan. 18 class spotlights spices and a clean-out-the-pantry vegetarian chili recipe.
• The Jan. 25 class features ways to use some of the forgotten grains in your pantry, including a recipe for Triscuit strawberry-balsamic delight.
