MyPantry 101

Food Services is launching a new project in collaboration with UOHS students, where we will feature recipe videos and demos to help you learn cooking skills.

Our goals with this project

Mon garde-manger / My Pantry 101 logo

Goal #1 is to help support your academic performance. One of the ways to increase your odds at getting those A+s, is to have breakfast, simple as that!

  • Breakfast improves academic performance.
  • The more often we have breakfast, the better our academic performance. 

Goal #2 is to help you eat more variety by teaching you basic food skills. How will we do this:

  • Peer to peer activities at My Pantry (demos and tastings)
  • Videos of the recipes on our screens, along with all the ingredients available to make the dish yourself, anytime of day.
