It was my wife's birthday and I was looking into nice restaurants and cooking classes... Happened upon Cozymeal and immediately knew that if there was an option on her birthday, this would be the go-to. Well, we lucked out and had Chef Megan's plant based, 4-course meal. We aren't consistent vegans/vegetarians, but we appreciate it and have gone stretches. From beginning to end, everything was first class. The conversation was fun and informative. And Chef taught us about a ton of different skills and helpful tips around the kitchen. We even had an impromptu salt tasting! The food was unbelievable. Honestly, we couldn't stopped at the Bruschetta, but I'm glad we didn't. The arugula w/ beet salad was lovely. The Buddha bowl was colorful and full of flavor. And the homemade Reese cup was a perfect finisher. We never felt rushed despite going over the allotted time. And it was so much cheaper than a night out at a fancy restaurant. Would highly recommend.

Chef Megan delivered an exceptional culinary experience for me and three colleagues during our Cozymeal class. In a warm and cozy setting, she guided us through preparing a delicious, wholesome meal from scratch—including black bean party hummus, arugula salad with fresh strawberries, quinoa salad, roasted salmon fillet, and a no-bake blueberry delight dessert. Beyond cooking, Chef Megan shared invaluable insights on selecting and maintaining kitchenware and introduced us to the inspiring Plant-to-Plate concept, deepening our appreciation for mindful cooking. Her teaching style was engaging, informative, and fun—making the entire experience both educational and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to elevate their kitchen skills in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere!

I could not have wished for a better birthday dinner for my wife than to have spent it with Chef Megan. The preparation tips and tricks alone were worth it. Add to that a dinner that was absolutely delicious and fun conversation that entertained us all for the evening. Book a visit with Chef Megan and you will not be disappointed. Looking forward to our next lesson!

Chef Megan was great! It was my Fiancé and I cooking at Megan’s home. She made us feel super comfortable and shared with us each step of the way how to cook and make delicious hummus, quinoa salad, strawberry walnut salad, salmon, and no bake dessert. We learned a ton of cooking techniques we can now put to good use when we meal prep! She carried the best ingredients, all organic and healthy source of food. She even shared with us her wine! We thoroughly enjoyed it!

The end result was a delicious, healthy dinner that exceeded expectations. We had such a great time and learned so much.

My experience with Cozymeal or Chef Megan was wonderful! She was so interesting and hilarious. I was nervous about coming into someone’s home but she made us extremely comfortable. She made sure everyone was able to have a hand in cooking something, welcomed questions, and gave several tips and tricks. I also loved how our entire group was relatable and how it was easy to communicate with and bounce off of each other. The food was tasty and we have new recipes to add to our home meals. I love that chef Megan printed off and gave us the menu/recipe in hand. It was a great 1st time experience and I look forward to trying it again in the future!

Beautiful kitchen environment. Learned a lot. The only detractor was that the description said the class was from 6:00-8:00pm but do to more casual talking than cooking, the class ran 1 hour over which was very inconvenient. Would not book this particular class again due to time overage.

Steven

About Chef Megan - she’s a gem - highly personable, witty, warm, easy to “chop it up” with, and very informative as it applied to healthy eating involving the various food groups. We thoroughly enjoyed her. I embraced her phrase “from the ground up”. From a culinary experience, this was a game changer for my wife and I. For me, I became both a humus and beets fan - both of which I hated and stayed away from. Every dish from the appetizers to desert were absolutely delicious! We learned so much information that I had to periodically text myself the information. To add, our experience with Cozymeal was great - clear and concise communications from start to finish. We will definitely seek to find future sessions with Chef Megan and others listed in Cozymeal.

Lindsey

12 Feb 2024

Chef Megan is absultely wonderful. Her class was not only tasty, but so much fun and full of helpful tips. She really makes you feel at home and it is such a fun thing to do with friends and/or family. We can't wait to make the recipes we made with her at our own home. We would recommned this class to anyone, even if you are not vegan. We loved it!

01 Jul 2022

The experience with Chef Megan was amazing! She has an awesome, friendly, welcoming personality. We felt at home after just a few minutes of meeting her. She has great stories to tell about famous people she's cooked for previously. But most of all she gave us many tips on how to cook Vegan foods in a variety of ways. She also shared which foods are better than others. She gave us numerous recommendations on Vegan restaurants here and in LA, where we previously lived. I am looking forward to having another engagement with her and bring friends. This experience was a gift from our children, so I won't give a tip now, but will do so certainly in the future when I book it myself. Chef Megan is 'muy muy bueno'.

My husband and I took our son and his girlfriend for a one of a kind, surprise date night. My son has recently become a very healthy eater and loves to prepare his own food. Chef Megan welcomed and answered all his 100 questions with expertise and ease. The four of us enjoyed a wonderful meal and learned so much. As my son told me, we could not have spent our money or time on a better experience!
