I'm a (mostly) healthy chef + Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. You can find me cooking for private events, teaching in-home cooking classes, helping clients navigate dietary restrictions and in my kitchen coming up with new recipes. And traveling whenever possible!

I left Florida just as our growing season had come to an end, and Massachusetts’ season had just begun! And even though I can’t cook right now, I can share my recipes and ideas with you all🌟 “Sometimes when you're in a dark place you think you've been buried, but you've actually been planted.” So go and bake these strawberry streusel muffins and lmk what you think! Recipe below with allergen friendly options🍓✨

Another silver lining of having to lay down all day…I’m catching up on writing down recipes and posting them! Made these for a client who can’t have dairy or eggs, and have also made them GF…all modifications are written in the recipe below. Lmk what you think!✨🍓 Strawberry Streusel Muffins

Strawberry season in Massachusetts…one of the many silver linings of suddenly having to uproot my life🍓🌟 “Sometimes when you're in a dark place you think you've been buried, but you've actually been planted.”❣️🌺@christinecaine #silverlining #bloom #strawberry #strawberryseason

This post is inspired by @its_me_amanda_yogi ❤️ My incredibly sweet friend and favorite yoga teacher of all time. She recently called me a fighter…she acknowledged the fact that I’ve struggled with health issues for a long time, but also remain excellent in my work. It was such a big encouragement on so many levels, but one being that my goal each day, no matter how much pain I am in, no matter how much I want to quit, is to work to the absolute best of my God given ability, and to always finish strong. One of my favorite names for God is “El Roi” the God who sees me, and it’s so comforting to know that God sees me in my struggles, and that I can call on Him for strength. And one way He gives us that strength is by putting people in our life who see us, support us, encourage us, cheer for us, laugh with us, cry with us and journey with us. I’ve been so uplifted lately by so many people in my life. Tag that person in your life who “sees” you. And then go be that person to someone today🌟#friends #friendship #chronicpain #chronicpainwarrior #lymewarrior @loopforwomen @shetheroar @shereadstruth #privatechef #chef #cheeseboard #cheese #privatecheflife #appetizers #entertaining #foodgrams #instagood #instafood #privatecheflife #nomnom #buzzfeedfood #latenightsnacks #goodeats #food #foodphotography #cheflife #stpeteeats #tampaeats #thekitchn #tampachefs #mostlyhealthychef

This #cheeseandcharcuterie spread was for a lovely group of ladies who finally had a dinner party after not seeing each other for a year and a half! I love getting to be a small part in bringing people together. A friend recently told me that she was inspired by my cheese boards to make some for her brother’s wedding reception, and they were 👌👌and it just made me so happy and love my job all the more. Can’t wait to get back out there✨ #privatechef #chef #cheeseboard #cheese #dinnerparty #gathering #privatecheflife #appetizers #entertaining #foodgrams #instagood #instafood #ladiesnight #privatecheflife #nomnom #buzzfeedfood #goodeats #food #foodphotography #cheflife #stpeteeats #tampaeats #thekitchn #tampachefs #mostlyhealthychef

I have felt so much love and encouragement the past few weeks as I’ve had to take time off from cooking❤️ The past couple of months my pain and neurological symptoms just kept getting worse and worse...I knew something had to give…I knew I needed to get the next level of care even if it meant surgery. Mentally, I just wasn’t ready to do what my body needed. And so it did it for me. After almost ending up in the hospital a few times, I’m finally just letting myself rest until I get answers and relief. Which might might mean cervical fusion, which I am hoping and praying could at least instead be artificial disc replacement, but I need to stabilize my cranio-cervial junction and the rest of my spine, and I have tried everything in the non-surgical route, so at this point will do whatever it takes. I am so thankful to have my parents help and their home to convalesce, the love and support of family and friends, and access to the medical care I need. And trying my best to rest in Gods timing and plan in all of this!! So in the meantime, I’ll catch up on posting what I’ve been up to the past few months🌟 Starting with a brunch themed #cheeseandcharcuterie spread with granola & a pink grapefruit & champagne jam✨ #privatechef #chef #cheeseboard #cheese #privatecheflife #appetizers #brunch #entertaining #foodgrams #instagood #instafood #privatecheflife #nomnom #buzzfeedfood #grazing #goodeats #food #foodphotography #cheflife #stpeteeats #tampaeats #thekitchn #tampachefs #mostlyhealthychef
