Chef Services ~ Organic, Local, with Homemade Sauces and Stocks
​

Nourishing food prepared with my homemade stocks, organic, vitamin-rich ingredients, designed to heal and nourish new families, anyone in a major life transition, or recovering from illness, or just in need of a little more love and nourishment


My great Aunt Rae on my mom's side was an amazing chef. So was my grandfather Buzzy on my dad's side. I remember at Aunt Rae's each Jewish holiday meal, a gigantic pot of soup was ready to feed 30 people. I don't know how she did it, but we were all fed, and happy people. The warmth of family and the nourishing energy really stuck with me. My grandfather Buzzy was a true creative type. He traveled a lot (as I ended up doing as well) and when he was home in Baltimore for months at a time, I remember outdoor barbecues by the pool. The two things I can never forget: blue crabs jumping into the pool who'd escaped from his boiling pot and an amazing chopped liver he would make for me whenever I asked. I think this creativity and warmth throughout my childhood, surrounding food and family, really comes back when I cook each meal for a client. I feel at ease, and able to enjoy every minute of it.

This week: Turkey Cocoa Punto Chili (sold out!)

I provide great tasting, healing, and nurturing foods that are a convenient solution for individuals or couples who just don't have time for the hassle of meal planning, food shopping, meal preparation and cleaning. I prepare warm & nutritious meals in my home, meals that promote immune health and energy (loaded with vitamins and minerals such as iron, B-vitamins, calcium). Everything is prepared from scratch, without processed ingredients, mostly organic, and prepared in a manner for maximum ease in digestion and absorption of nutrients. I prepare my own homemade bone and mineral broths. I started out as a Postpartum Chef in NYC for my Doula clients in 2009, and am so excited to be growing so that I can nourish more growing families and all people in need of more love.
