Cooking Classes

We also offer a range of nutrition courses for culinary experts to show chefs and food editors how they can impact Australian's health by the food they cook and write about. With nearly a decade of experience working in food media, coauthor of the recipes in Diabetic Living Magazine a Better Homes and Garden's, Pacific Magazines publication, and writing our own cookbooks, we show chefs that food can really look and taste sensational while at the same time be healthier if not completely healthy. We all like to indulge in decadent food occasionally, dietitians included, but when high salt, fatty and sugary foods that lack nutrients creep into everyday eating on a regular basis, food contributors need to take their part of responsibility in this. In saying that their is no point attempting to produce healthy food if they don't know how, there is nothing worse than a recipe being labelled healthy if in fact it's not. Which is where our course comes in - we fill the gaps that their culinary training has missed and help them be experts in cooking all styles of food including special dietary requirements.
