Jodi Balis has been cooking in the kitchen with adults, children, and families for 20 years.

As a food guide, she helps individuals find their food niche where meals are both practical to prepare and nourishing.

As a teacher, she approaches cooking and meal planning as both a technical and creative endeavor. She helps others set a strong meal foundation in the kitchen and create a cooking practice that flows and fits into busy schedules.

As a mother of two, Jodi designed her own kitchen so that food, family, and life are integrated into one. She finds joy in sitting around the table and eating roasted chickpeas with her 2 daughters.
