Cooking Beyond Recipes

I am here to help you become more successful in the kitchen using the lessons I’ve learned and the experiences I’ve gained in over 40 years in the food business, and over 22 running my own succesful food business. I have a pssion for food, for teaching, and a strong desire to share evrything I have learned with others!

Subscribing is easy and affordable. Two membership plans available. You can pay $24.95 CAD a month, or $150.00 a year. Monthly subscribers can cancel anytime if its not right for you! Once you subscribe, your membership fee will never go up. If I ever decided to increase the price in the future, that cost would be for new subscribers only! So what comes with a subscription?

Your subscription gives you 24/7 access to over 500 recipes and over 400 videos, with more content added regularly! Your subscription also gives you access to our chat feature were you can ask me questions about recipes, techniques, or anything else food related. Its like having your own personal chef instructor. We have an extensive list of technique and pro tip videos along with videos talking about unique ingredients. On our new resource page, I share books I love about food, podcasts I like to listen to, and external links to sites that I think will help make you more successful in the kitchen. You can also get to know me through my vlog/chefs thoughts page, here I say what I think and call it like I see it. I am also excited about a new section, “Behind the Scenes”, where I will go through the steps on recipe creation, food costing and more.

You can see why its called Cooking Beyond Recipes…it’s more than just recipes, and yes, all this for only $6.30 Canadian a month! You will also receive access to our community face book page where you can ask questions of the group, share your recipes, and just enjoy interacting with other food lovers! When you subscribe, I will also have access a short questionnaire, asking you what you would like to get from this site. That way I can create content for you the user!

You need to write a cookbook!

I have heard the phrase “you need to write a cookbook” countless times throughout my career. However, I am never satisfied with a recipe. I am always reworking them as I learn more, experience more, and discover more. I enjoy the journey and sharing that journey with others.

Sharing that journey is what inspired me to make this website. I am looking forward to sharing my experiences, recipes and ideas while we all continue learning and expanding our passion for all things food.
