Ready to embark on your vegan journey?

Imagine that you’re ready to lean into a plant-based diet, or want to go fully vegan, and want to learn to prepare some new recipes to spice up your meals. A private chef shows up at your home, to teach you and some friends, bringing all of the ingredients and recipes, any special cookware needed, and spends a couple of hours helping you all prepare a delicious, colorful meal that you will enjoy eating afterwards. All of your questions are answered, you learn some new techniques, and you get to eat foods that you love. Hate mushrooms? They won’t appear anywhere. Love creamy pasta and luscious desserts? They will all be planned out for you.

CUSTOMIZED IN-HOME COOKING CLASSES

A private cooking class can be designed in many different ways. Planning a gathering with friends or family? Arrange a private vegan cooking class or dinner for your group. Do you and your spouse want to learn to make a few recipes for easy weeknight dinners? Done. Looking for a fun activity for your best friend’s birthday? Learn to make a wonderful vegan meal and then enjoy the delicious results together.

In-home private customized sessions ~ you provide the kitchen and I’ll bring everything else to prepare a delicious vegan meal.

“The cooking class was excellent! She explained everything clearly and everything was so tasty! What I appreciated a lot was that shared some personal aspects of her journey towards the lifestyle she supports, without being judgmental or on a soapbox. I learned quite a few new things. I look forward to attending more of her classes and will recommend them to others.” (Irvine, CA)

Let’s Plan a class!

Once you register for a class, we’ll work together to create the menu for the session. On the day, I’ll bring all of the ingredients, copies of the recipes for you to keep, and we’ll prepare a delicious, healthy meal. I’ll tidy as we go, and you’ll be left to enjoy the fruits of our work in a clean kitchen.

In each session, we also discuss adaptations and extensions for the recipes. Learn how to change up each recipe with different ingredients and different flavors so you can make it different in every season or for different people.

This way, you’re not leaving with 4 or 5 recipes to make over and over again ~ you’re learning techniques that will turn each recipe into a multitude of different dishes.

What do you get in your class?

- A completely customized 2-3 hour cooking class, with a menu based on your preferences

- All ingredients, recipes and any special cookware brought to your home, so you can prepare the recipes in your own space

- 4-6 fun and interesting recipes that we’ll prepare together, plus bonus recipes based on your preferences that you can make at a later time

- A cleaned up space to enjoy your meal afterwards

- Unlimited text/email questions afterwards so you can ask questions as they come up

- A wonderful time with your friends and family. After all, food brings people together!

Two standard class options are available:

• A class for up to 4 people, preparing 4 recipes ~ $499*
