Cooking fresh ingredients at home is unquestionably the healthiest way to eat, yet so many people find the task daunting. I want to make cooking a tasty, nutritious meal feel easy so that you can champion your health through food. 

My Mission is to build the habits and skillsets that enable you to enjoy making healthy and delicious food with ease.

I teach techniques, not just recipes, to develop intuition and confidence in the kitchen.

I offer guidance on what ingredients to buy and why it matters where your food comes from.

I equip you to make healthy choices and spearhead your health journey by sharing nutritional information. 

IN-PERSON

Join me for an
Aperitif Party!


The dog days of summer are here. This means casual gatherings with friends, light appetizers, and little cooking!


Aperitif derives from the Latin word "aperire", meaning "to open". It's an alcoholic beverage typically served with small bites or hors d'oeuvres. In France, this can be the start of a meal or a casual finger food gathering around the pool. Join me for this tradition!

Food is the ultimate unifier

Join me for live cooking classes and lunch or dinner, depending on the class - Saturdays in South Bay.

The focus, as always, will be seasonal food. Cooking techniques and planning for “cook once, eat twice” meals.

  • We cover mid-week ideas for busy people.
  • We’ll create delicious flavors using proper cooking methods.
  • In-person classes will be for at most eight students.
  • Classes will be hands-on and a group effort.

Praise for Past Events

Barbie takes all of the healthy concepts — herbs, colored veggies, minerals, sprouting, soaking, good fats, balanced meals — and weaves them into everyday dinners. The end result is tasty food without even knowing how good the food is for your immune system and all of your organs!

— Dr. Thao Nguyen M.D.,
To Be Primary Care
