Each week I get asked to teach certain recipes that students really want to learn…like how to prepare the perfectly cooked artichoke, or “how do you make that kale salad I can find at PC Greens”, the “secret” recipe for my homemade granola, WHAT kind of butter did you put on my crostini?!…
the list goes on…
NOW, you can learn some of my most requested recipes in ONE class!
Please join me for this 2-hour action packed FUN evening!
Go home with compound butters & granola…
as well as a new found love of kale!

WOW! Thank you to Room 402, for welcoming me with open arms and raised hands!! You all were absolutely terrific and I enjoyed spending my morning with you!
For those of you who were not there, my friend Kelly Meyer, who heads up a fantastic organization called the “Teaching Garden” asked me to come to Will Roger’s Third Grade Class and do a cooking demonstration using foods the kids might find in their own gardens…especially the ones Kelly and many of her volunteers helped prepare this past weekend! What an inspirational day and what a fantastic group of kids I met. Together, Laird Hamilton, myself & some Will Rogers students help plant a meyer lemon tree!
Here is what we made in Room 402!
Salad Tacos – feeds 4-6 hungry kids
- 1 cucumber – peeled and diced small
- 5 basil leaves – chopped
- 1/2 bunch cilantro – chopped small
- 2 celery stalks – chopped small
- 1/2 red bell pepper – chopped small
- 1 large carrot – shredded on a cheese grater
- 1/4 cup miso dressing
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Mix all of the above ingredients together in a large bowl and scoop into
- 10 leaves from a head (or two) of butter lettuce (for the “taco shells”)!
Now you can learn how quick and easy it is to prepare fresh organic meals in your own kitchen. It’s easy to get stuck in a rut and tedious to re-invent your same old dishes! These classes offer a new and exciting approach to your own personal cooking style.
Each class is designed to be educational and fun! All you do is choose the class you would like, invite 5 to 10 friends and enjoy a meal together after the class, taste as we go or take it home!
