A Very Covid-Free Christmas

Ashley Ondrick

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!

My Dad passed away Saturday afternoon. I am so grateful that he is not suffering anymore, and rejoice that he’s in the loving arms of his Creator, in his true home. I also can’t begin to think about life without him, the immense void that his absence will leave and just how much I will miss him. My dad left a legacy of faith, of generosity, of determination, of grit, of hard work, of laughter and of love for his family, his friends and his Savior that I will never forget. And some pretty stellar knife skills🤍🤍🤍 #loveyoudad
Sitting by my dads bedside, watching each breath and wondering if it’s the last, and got a poetry prompt from @jenniferjcamp on the topic of doubt. It helped me process some questions around prayer and stirred up emotions that have been too difficult to process, but needed to come to the surface. @jenniferjcamp thank you for letting God use you🤍
Gluten-free quadruple almond poppyseed cake (almond flour, amaretto, almond paste & almond extract) with blood orange glaze…which was the prettiest color and the citrus added such a bright pop to the richness of the cake! Cake recipe from @theviewfromgreatisland (and I swapped @kingarthurbaking AP #glutenfree flour blend.) For the blood orange glaze🍊…combine freshly-squeezed blood orange juice with powdered sugar until you get a thick but still runny consistency for those dramatic drips🤩 @amandaallendesigns #birthday #cake #birthdaycake #birthdayparty #glutenfree #cakedecorating #cakes #privatechef #chef #entertaining #food #foodgrams #instagood #instafood #privatecheflife #food #foodphotography #cheflife #tampabay #tampaeats #tampachefs #mostlyhealthychef
The best little kitchen elf…and I can’t believe how much she’s changed in just a year! Behind-the scenes shot of last years cake decorating. This year, Ruby took her mommas cell phone under her bed covers for extra secrecy, and planned the cake we will make when I’m back…so stay tuned😹😻 @amandaallendesigns #birthday #cake #birthdaycake #birthdayparty #glutenfree #cakedecorating #cakes #privatechef #chef #entertaining #food #foodgrams #instagood #instafood #privatecheflife #food #foodphotography #cheflife #tampabay #tampaeats #tampachefs #mostlyhealthychef
It’s my sisters birthday🥳 And the first time since moving to Florida that I’m not there to celebrate with her…and make her a cake😭 But Ruby and I have already planned a belated cake-making extravaganza when I’m back home next month. This was last years which I never ended up posting…GF quadruple almond poppyseed with blood orange glaze. Sprinkle-bombed by Ruby🤣😍 @amandaallendesigns #birthday #cake #birthdaycake #birthdayparty #glutenfree #cakedecorating #cakes #privatechef #chef #entertaining #food #foodgrams #instagood #instafood #privatecheflife #food #foodphotography #cheflife #tampabay #tampaeats #tampachefs #mostlyhealthychef
I can’t tell you how good it feels to be back in the kitchen creating!! We always have key lime pie on Christmas Eve, and there’s no messing with tradition! But that doesn’t mean I can’t have a little fun with it…used @kingarthurbaking recipe for a key lime tart, doubled the filling and baked it in a spring form pan🌟 Merry Christmas!!🎄#christmas #holiday #holidayseason #holidays #howiholiday #dessert #christmasfood #christmasbrunch #privatechef #chef #privatecheflife #dinnerparty #entertaining #foodgrams #instagood #instafood #privatecheflife #buzzfeedfood #goodeats #food #foodphotography #thekitchn #healthyfood #mostlyhealthychef
