What a truly special honor it was to host today’s celebration of our nation’s 250th anniversary with our local DAR chapter. There’s something really meaningful about gathering together to reflect on where we’ve come from and the values that continue to shape us.

April 18th marks the official birthdate - a moment in history that reminds us why historic preservation, education, and patriotism matter so deeply. Grateful to have been a small part of something that celebrates both our past and the generations to come. 🇺🇸

With just a few thoughtful touches, any dish can be elevated. This is our INSPIRE French Toast … simple meets stunning. 🍓🥖✨

Huge thank you to Chef Justin, Chef Jack, Chef Eric, and Chef Michael for bringing this menu to life - described/priced the way they would present it in their own kitchens:

INSPIRED FRENCH TOAST 21.

This meal cost about $35 total to make and feeds 8 people or can be used for meal prep throughout the week - bringing the cost to about $4.37 per plate.

Keep in mind, some ingredients (like coconut aminos and sesame oil) are pantry staples—the price reflects the full bottle, which can be used across multiple meals, lowering the true cost per serving even further.

Most ingredients were sourced affordably from Grocery Outlet, with coconut aminos purchased at Costco.

Our mission at Inspire Culinary Academy is to empower families, youth, and individuals with the skills to prepare wholesome, flavorful meals - proving that nutritious food can be created for under $5 per plate without compromise.

Chicken thigh family pack: $10.23
All Natural Vegetable Spring Rolls: $1.79
Organic frozen broccoli: $2.99
Kale Chopped Salad: $5
Coconut Aminos: $10
Green onion: $2
Sesame oil: $5
