Culinary Nutrition Workshops and Counseling

Cook the way you want to feel”. We love this motto from Bon Appetit because cooking is a powerful health behavior. We also know that turning that corner of 50 can be a rocky ride for your cholesterol, blood sugar and your weight. Cooking is one of the best ways to get your health back on track. We want to make cooking a joy not a chore that’s why we’ve created delicious, healthier recipes that are easy and fast (many have 5 ingredients or less). We can help you create menus and meals that are easy to prepare and actually fun to make!

What is Culinary Nutrition?

Cook the way you want to feel by taking control of your kitchen. Eating meals that you prepare at home is better for your weight, your cholesterol, your blood sugar and your wallet. Culinary Nutrition combines easy, healthy cooking practices with nutrition guidance from registered dietitians so you can make food you love and feel your best, 

Stock your healthy kitchen with delicious, nourishing food for easy to assemble meals, Use our recipes designed with fewer ingredients, simple techniques and lighter substitutions yet we never compromise on flavor. How wonderful would it be to eat the food you love AND see your health improve? Best of all, you will be motivated to cook more often because we eliminate the stress around meal planning and prep. We help you stock your pantry, create meal plans, and practice recipes with the nutritional guidance from your culinary nutritionist. Meet with us one on one or join our next workshop.

This is worth repeating. Cooking is a Powerful Health Behavior! When you cook more at home you’ll see improvements in your health, including better numbers on the scale,  improved cholesterol and blood sugar, and you’ll simply feel better!
