Cooking club changes lives. We get together to cook some healthy vegan building blocks that will form the base of our weekday meals. In so doing, we find nourishment for our bodies and souls. When you sign up for cooking club, you get:
- Structure: Leave batch cooking to chance, and chances are… it won’t happen! When you join the Healthy Vegan Batch Cooking Club, it’s now on your schedule. It happens at a specific, predictable time. And you show up.
- Motivation: Even if you don’t like cooking, it’s fun to spend an hour or two doing something productive and meaningful with a group of people who also value really good food.
- Accountability: You don’t just show up for yourself. You show up for me, and you show up for the other members of cooking club. Your presence makes it better for everyone.
- Support: An expert plant-based cooking and nutrition educator is there to answer your questions, as well as many other experienced plant-based cooks who also attend cooking club.
- Really good food… ready to eat: Having spent a bit of time in the kitchen on Sunday (every other week), you have some building blocks ready to reheat and assemble into wholesome meals on busy weekdays. It’s amazing!
What do we do during batch cooking club sessions?
Cooking club is for cooking – not watching. We are all doing our own thing.
- Everyone who joins is committed to preparing at least one plant-based building block for their week.
- Some of us are subscribers to the Vegan Meal Plans and follow the prep steps in full, others somewhat loosely.
- Some members are not subscribers and just do their own thing, often inspired by my principles of “minimum viable prep” (one batch of whole grain, one soup or stew, one sauce or dressing).
There is no teaching, though Brigitte is happy to take your questions about plant-based cooking and nutrition during that time.
We chat a bit while we cook, though often we go silent to focus better on the task.
Please: only bring plant-based ingredients to cooking club and refrain from discussing animal-based products (meat, dairy, eggs, honey) other than to ask for substitution guidance. Thank you!

What is the cost?
The Healthy Vegan Batch Cooking Club is now FREE! Yes, free. I decided that I wanted to make this life-changing program available to everyone.
I feel privileged to be able to invite you into my (virtual) vegan family kitchen so we can spend this time together.
Those who wish and are able to contribute towards the costs of maintaining cooking club are welcome to do so, but it’s absolutely not required or expected.
I expect you to SHOW UP and COOK PLANTS – that’s it.
When do we meet?
We meet every other week on Sunday. I am always present for at least one hour, usually more.
The time is currently 1 p.m. Pacific (Vancouver). Check WorldTimeBuddy to find out the time in your own time zone. Note that Vancouver does NOT change from standard to daylight savings time. We are no longer always in sync with California, but always in sync with Arizona.
When you sign up, you’ll receive reminders 24 hours and 30 minutes before we start.

What if I can’t attend all sessions?
Life happens, people travel and get sick, friends need help, and that’s understandable. If it turns out that you can *never* attend and you’d like to stop receiving reminders, just email Brigitte to let her know.
