March is the month of Holi, India's Festival of Colors. To those who've visited PNA's in-person Holi, celebration, grabbing a hot kathi roll and a cup of chai was a much- anticipated part of the experience. While we can't do this in person yet, we wanted to teach you to make what we hope can become a new favorite easy lunch or dinner. Some easy pre-prep is required to marinate the paneer overnight). Your class goodie bag includes ten Holi color packets so that you can celebrate the Festival of Colors with your own family or pandemic pod! (if you share photos on social media, tag us at #PNAHoli and let us know!) Additional Holi color powder packets are available for purchase (only available for local pickup or delivery).

Cost – $65: includes a 3-hour cook-along class, recipes, and a fun goodie bag! Cost is per "screen", you are encouraged to cook along at home with your family members and pandemic pod buddies. (All proceeds benefit the PNA!)

Your goodie bag from PNA will include the following:

• Spice blend for paneer marinade (enough for 2 participants)
• Biscuits for 2
• Loose Tea
• 10 Holi color powder packets (assorted colors)

If you are cooking for more than two, you can order additional goodie bags, or purchase the spices (they are listed out on the shopping list).

Goodie bags will be available for pickup at the Phinney Center for pick-up M-F, 9 am-5 pm after Monday, March 22. If you cannot pick the goodie bag up during those times, local delivery can be arranged in zip codes 98103, 98107, 98117, and 98133 and will be dropped off on Friday, March 26. See RSVP email for details.
