Plant-Based Food Art with Melanie Albert
Dear Plant-Based Friend,
Have you ever wanted to host a beautiful dinner party that WOWs your friends…and be the talk of the town?
One of the most significant issues many plant-based home cooks face is how to make dishes look good. We often cook “good” meals and then pile the food on a plate; they are visually boring and not appealing. This is especially embarrassing when we want to host a dinner party.
I’m Melanie Albert, creator of the 3-Day “Skip the Meal Dinner Party Challenge.”
Today, not knowing how to easily create beautiful, eye-catching plant-based appetizers for your dinner party is about to change for you.
I created the “Skip the Meal Dinner Party Challenge” to help people who love plant-based, enjoy farmers markets, enjoy cooking, and really love to host memorable dinner parties…to create beautiful eye-catching appetizers for a dinner party…
Without going to culinary school.
Without working in a gourmet restaurant.
Without spending hours upon hours in the kitchen.
Without complicated recipes.
Without being artistic.
Maybe you have tried online courses, experimented with many different plant-based cookbooks, and attempted to replicate dishes you’ve seen on social media…but your dishes are not quite as beautiful as you’d like them to be.
For the last 35 years…I have not eaten meat.
For the last 25 years…I have eaten organic.
For 20 years…I have been shopping at farmers markets.
My passion is cooking and creating beautiful plant-based appetizers, entrees, and desserts with local farmers' produce, herbs, and edible flowers all the time.
Plus, I have gained knowledge about the “right” plant-based food to eat from working with integrative medicine pioneer Dr. Andrew Weil for 9 years and studying at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York City in 2006-2007.
I have learned so much about culinary with 610 hours of plant-based professional culinary training. And I have taught whole food culinary (on campus and online) for 6 years at a holistic institute in Arizona. Plus, I have even taught several former NFL football players and their families how to cook “healthy” meals.
I have had the honor to host hundreds of farm-to-table events and classes to thousands of people at farmers markets, urban farmers, corporate with non-profits, and for events including Earth Day, Food Day, Arizona Food & Farm Forum, and Arizona Vegetarian Food Festival, and NFL Alumni Association and Hall of Fame events during Super Bowl weeks.
Plus, I have hosted LIVE interactive online Plant-Based Challenges in the last few years.
Most importantly, I am honored to share my decades of knowledge, experience, and passion with you…
So you, too, can create beautiful plant-based dishes.
By the end of this 3-Day FREE Challenge, you’ll have all you need…
How to shop, cook, and create beautiful appetizers to WOW your friends at your fall dinner party!
I’m very honored and excited to be here with you on your plant-based journey.
