Weekly Meals – Save Time, Eat Healthy
(Personal chef in the Boston metropolitan area and on Martha’s Vineyard)
During the scheduled work or school week, set the table and sit down with your family to enjoy healthy dinners carefully prepared in your own kitchen, tailored to your own family’s tastes and needs.
“Cathy has been cooking for us for 5 years. She understands exactly what we like, is able to cook for different dietary needs, and her food is fantastic. I really don’t know what I’d do without her.”
Catherine is an experienced chef who will come to your house once a week or every other week to stock your fridge, preparing dinners for your household, that includes the main course, sides, soups and salads. Her priority is using the freshest and most flavorful seasonal ingredients from area farms, fishmongers, farmers markets and Whole Foods Market, to create dishes brimming with vegetables, healthy grains and legumes, fish, chicken or meat. Nothing is frozen; everything is from scratch. Each week brings a new menu – exploring ethnic dishes from around the world, from the latest and best cookbooks or what’s freshest in the market.
Catherine brings her experience as an author of 4 popular cookbooks and more than a dozen years of cooking as a private chef for families in the Boston area and on Martha’s Vineyard. Her area of expertise is creating healthy meals that taste delicious, first and foremost. She graduated from the Natural Gourmet Cooking School, a vegetarian and health-based school in New York City, so vegetarian or vegan meals are also a specialty.
She plans, shops, and cooks in your kitchen. When she leaves, your refrigerator is stocked with meals and labeled with instructions for serving. And the kitchen is spotless. All you have to do is come home, and choose a meal to enjoy. Save your own cooking or eating out for the weekends when you have more time.
