Chef Jess to the Rescue!

So, I just quit the freelance job that was a huge time-suck for me. This means I now have time to pursue things like food writing and private cheffing, which is how I want to spend my time. Unfortunately, when you have only one two-week gig on your resume, it's hard to convince people to pay you obscene amounts of money to cook for them.

That's why I've convinced a handful of my friends to give me an obscenely small sum of money to practice personal cheffing on them for a determined length of time, so I can beef up my resume, get feedback, and offer references to potential clients.

First up is Curly, who is on a healthy eating kick and wants some soups and dinners next week. Here's the menu:

Snack:
Roasted Garlic Hummus

Soups:
Butternut Squash with Kale
Creamy Lentil

Dinners:
Black Bean and Sweet Potato Stew
Miso-Glazed Salmon with Wasabi Mashed Potatoes and Sautéed Broccoli Rabe
Tofu Stir-Fry with Sesame Sauce and Soba Noodles
Veggie Burger with Sweet Potato Oven Fries
Roasted Vegetable Enchiladas

I'm going to take pictures and crap for my (coming soon) chef website. I'm going to post them here, too. I'm actually really excited!
