We had such a wonderful experience spending an afternoon with Chris in her kitchen. We came in with no particular expectations but left with wonderful inspiration on ways we can enhance our health by moving toward a plant-based diet. Chris is so knowledgeable and helpful, and her home and kitchen are a perfect setting for exploring new directions in cooking and eating. We are very excited about all we learned, and it’s already making a difference in our lives. We can’t recommend Chris and what she does highly enough!

Chris is a very kind and patient teacher, offered clear instructions, and was very encouraging so that I left the afternoon cooking class feeling that I can really do this. The hands-on experience was so valuable unlike passively watching a cooking demo. The meal we created was easy to make, plant-based, healthy, and delicious. We left the class with a copy of all of the recipes along with further information and cooking tips. The afternoon passed quickly. Do yourself a favor and sign up for this life-changing and delicious cooking opportunity. I’m glad I did. Highly recommended.
