Jess’s classes are Immersive and interactive,
transforming your home cooking from frustrating to fun!
In olive the sessions, you’ll learn how:
• each process works (and why)
• to anticipate the next step – and minimize panic
• to proactively use up ingredients to lessen food waste
• to develop your own palate and vocabulary
• to trust your creative instincts
so you can feel more empowered and emboldened
making your own decisions in the kitchen.

What you need, you know I got it:
After you register, check your inbox for all of the details on what we’ll make in that class.
Ingredients: you’ll receive a shopping list upon registration. I always offer options,
but typically, I recommend ingredients you’ll want to reach for over and over again.
Recipes: you will also receive PDFs of the recipes, which I recommend you print or have
the window open on your computer/device for reference. I will guide you through the
whole recipe from start to finish, but then you can save them for future cooking!
Templates: shopping lists, meal planning grids, and other handy kitchen references
why, yes, I did pose for a picture with a giant fork in the road. (I love a good pun…obviously.)
Don’t just take my word for it…see what past
