Kitchen Organization and Creating Systems
Week 1
This class is the foundation for the remainder of the course and what you learn here will set you up for success going forward. To cook more efficiently and with ease, you need an organized kitchen, a few proper tools, and SYSTEMS. I also discuss knives - what you need, what they all do, and how to sharpen them yourself. Bonus PDF that I have never shared before: all my favorite kitchen tools, cookware, storage pieces, and more with links!
Protein & Swaps
Week 2
Now I start cooking! I am going to cover the easiest way to cook all types of protein, including plant-based swaps. I have a few hacks up my sleeve that I will share with you and give you my favorite resources and product recommendations.
Vegetables
& Dressings
Week 3
I continue the cooking demonstrations with vegetables and salads! This is my favorite food group and I want you to learn my tips and tricks for how to eat more veggies and get your family on board, too!
Sauces, Salsa,
Spice Blends
Week 4
More cooking this week with sauces, salsas, dressings, and spice blends! These are my secret weapons in the kitchen. I'll show you why you'll learn to love this category and how it will help your meals go from boring to fabulous with little effort.

Anne
This has changed my cooking during quarantine life!! You are such a joy to watch. You are so calm and patient and lovely and a wealth of information. I am a great cook and even helped my daughter start a catering business but you have changed my cooking life. I am much more relaxed and confident in making swaps and now make your recipes more than any others.

This has been a fantastic bootcamp! Thank you Pamela. I feel more confident in the kitchen.

About Me
I have loved good food and enjoyed cooking for as long as I can remember. As a child, while other kids were at the playground, I was helping my father in the garden, watering plants and vines and watching miracles happen. I come from a large Italian-American family where sit-down holiday dinners for 85 people are the norm (how, you might ask – organization! But more on that later …).
The food I grew up with was never fancy, even though my mother always had a subscription to Gourmet. But I knew where the food came from and it was always real. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I learned more about the nourishing and healing power of food. And it wasn’t until I volunteered as a nutrition docent in an elementary school for Growing Great that it truly crystallized for me — our society has a big problem. I knew I had to do something, but was unsure of where to start.
I was asked to teach a “healthful cooking class” for a group of young mothers. The business grew organically from that first group and I knew I had a message — and a new mission — in life.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A replay video will be available to all students in case you miss a call or would like to watch at your own pace. Replay videos do not expire and will be available to view in the private membership portal account.
You can still take the course, but it will limit the support you can potentially receive from your fellow classmates. If you do not have facebook, but would like to know about the things I post, please email my assistant at pamelasassistant@gmail.com and she can send you weekly facebook posts.
Of course! With the free Zoom app, you will be able to access video classes from your phone or tablet without any additional software.
No, participants can only see and hear me. You can show up as you are! Your questions or comments are submitted in a chat box which all participants will see.
I will be there every step of the way and will answer any questions you have during our weekly live classes. You can also contact me via the private facebook page or through email at pamelasalzman@gmail.com. For any tech questions, please contact my assistant at pamelasassistant@gmail.com.
Since I can only cook a limited number of recipes in a 1 hour class and the saved zoom recordings are not high quality, I opted to have the cooking demos professionally recorded and edited to be able to include more content. The plus side is the video quality will be much better when you watch it again.
You will not need any fancy kitchen equipment, although I will offer suggestions on my favorite go-to tools. Having basic tools like a cutting board, knife, sheet pan, and skillet are great!
No problem! I will offer plenty of substitutions you can use to adapt recipes.
With only a limited amount of spots available, sign up will be open until June 1st or until the course is full. Be sure to act fast to secure a spot.
Each student will receive login details after signing up to access their own private account on the membership portal (login link located in weekly emails and on my site, under Bootcamps) where course content is organized into weekly categories. This is where you will be able to access zoom invites, weekly downloads, and replay videos in case you miss an email.
