If you’ve ever hosted a yoga or wellness retreat, you know how crucial the food component is to the program. Participants need to feel nourished in a way that’s inspiring, transformative and motivating so they can to continue their empowerment through wellness once they head home. Often, retreat menus strive but miss the mark by serving under-seasoned curries, mushy steamed veggies, and the usual types of stereotypically unsatisfying health food that you’d see in an episode of Portlandia.
As the chef for retreats and training programs such as Reboot Colorado and the Goddess Ceremony, Katya uses whole plant ingredients to create dishes that are as satisfying as they are nourishing. Drawing from global culinary traditions and employing original innovations for plant-based cuisine, the food leaves participants feeling nurtured, energized, and a little mind-blown. Dishes can be all-organic, gluten-free and seasonal when requested. Menus can include breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks, desserts and herbal infusions for immunity, energy and digestion.
