the story

Meet Zoë

I really love cooking for my family and I want to help you feel the same way. I get it – cooking a meal for the brood can be overwhelming day in, day out. Add in some fussiness, allergies and intolerances, work and after school activities, and perhaps a toddler round your ankles and it becomes a huge chore. That’s where I can help. I’ll show you how to plan, shop and prepare nourishing, tasty and easy real-food meals to satisfy your family, your real life. We’ll have fun doing it, you’ll gain kitchen confidence and become more relaxed about mealtimes. You’ll feel nourished in more ways than one. Real life, real kitchen. Real food.

Zoe is amazing… She has injected inspiration, creativity and thoughtfulness into my meal planning and cooking. I no longer shy away from batch cooking which in turn has optimised my time spent in the kitchen and has resulted in an increased of calmness and order to our week. Our food waste has reduced and we are saving money! I can’t thank or recommend Zoe enough!!🙏❤️ x

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Zoë’s Cooking Edit. From start to finish, my interaction with Zoë exceeded my expectations. I initially booked the service as I was hoping to learn more about gluten free cooking, it turned out to be so much more. I was a little apprehensive to have someone come to my kitchen and help me with an area that I am not particularly skilled in but I needn’t have worried. 

The session itself was thoroughly enjoyable. Zoë is kind, understanding and very skilled in her profession. I was amazed at the amount of food that we prepped in such a short time, and all on a very manageable budget! 

As result of this service my confidence has grown and it has helped relieve the constant pressure of “what do I cook next?!” In addition, understanding how to prep for my family has freed up much more time and has helped with unnecessary food spends on convenience food. 

I would, and have, thoroughly recommend this service. It is perfect for anyone stuck in a rut, those looking to make a change in their household, a perfect gift for new mothers and for many, many others. 

I look forward to seasonal edits to allow me to approach all seasons with such ease!
