December 4th: Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup
December 4th: Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup
12/4 at 6pm EST: Make grilled cheese with tomato soup with Chris! This class is in partnership with Pinemelon, a Denver-based online grocery delivery service.
Is your grilled cheese and tomato soup game good enough to get you through another winter? I’m not talking about using American cheese (which is great, don’t get me wrong) or soup in a box. I’m talking about soul-hugging, creamy tomato soup (completely vegan, by the way) and a cheddar and smoked gouda grilled cheese with a crispy cheese crust. The cheese crust, well, it’s kind of like a Cheez-It. How you eat it, well, that’s up to you!
For this class, I’ve partnered with Pinemelon, a new Denver-based online grocery delivery service focused on supporting local producers, humanizing e-commerce, and providing an exceptionally high quality product and customer experience. I collaborated with Pinemelon to put together an ingredient kit for this class, and if you are in their Denver delivery area you’ve got to take advantage of this convenience! If you have never used their service before, I’ll be providing you with a discount code to use on your Pinemelon order after you register for the class.

Who is teaching this virtual cooking class?
Chris Howard aka Lanyap Cookery
Yep, it’s me. I’ve been organizing these classes since January of 2021 and now I am teaching my first class. I’ve been cooking at home for two decades. In the last year, I decided to get out of my comfort zone in the kitchen – literally. I worked at a meat & cheese shop and in the kitchen of a restaurant that was recently named one of 5280’s 25 Best Restaurants in Denver.
What makes Pinemelon different?
This company prioritizes Colorado businesses when possible, carries farmers market favorites, fresh grocery items, pantry staples and household necessities from trusted national sources and value-driven brands. The delivery process is customizable for a better-than-expected ordering experience. Plus, they offer free delivery on all orders over $35 and put no additional plastic in your order. I may not always remember my reusable grocery bags when I need groceries, so I love that with Pinemelon I don’t have to worry about that or plastic bags!
