What we’ll make

Butter Chickpeas

These super easy Indian-spiced chickpeas are packed with tons of protein—even in the sauce!

You’ll learn a simple preparation method to make the most protein-dense plant-based ingredient: tempeh.

Kung Pao Tempeh

Chile-Garlic
Asada Tacos

With these tacos, I’ll show you a very cool (kind of secret) ingredient that will blow your mind.

Lemon-Oregano Chick’n

I’ll show you the technique I developed to give tofu a super satisfying texture.

$175 is a lot for a cooking class

But DoorDash is 10X more

I wanted to break down the savings you will experience after taking my class, so I did a cost analysis for the insanely protein-packed butter chickpeas. I compared them to ordering a similar (less protein) dish from Lotus via DoorDash.

At first glance, these look pretty close. That is, until you realize the homemade version makes a GIANT pot that contains 8 servings. That brings the cost to $2.39 per serving. Literally saving you $21.70 compared to delivery. $21.70 × 8 = $173.60

If you cook the butter chickpeas once, you’ll have paid for the class.
