I have the pleasure to know and refer my clients to Susan. Her approach to food, especially raw cuisine brings nutrition and eating from the earth to a whole new level. She has offered to share her endless knowledge and experience of incorporating living raw food to make food fabulous and functional. My clients enjoy tasty, healthy food preparations while learning the important benefits of eating food in entire new way.
Susan has lectured all over the country and is eager to share with us ”The 3 Most Powerful Jewels to Know About Nutrition”. This topic encourages the deletion of specific diets and encourages to “eat from the Earth & not the factory”.
She is a captivating and dynamic speaker and I look forward to learning more and so will you!

The History of Essential Cuisine
“When I learned about raw living foods, my world changed. People said my signs of aging had reversed. I was in love with my new cuisine, and I was inspired to learn more. My dietary regime expanded into more cooked food, cultured foods, and foods full of high functionality.
Over the years I made it my personal and professional quest to discover all I could about the growing industry of organic and natural foods. While lecturing in schools around the country I combed every health food store for the best products available. I attended natural product trade shows for over a decade and visited milling facilities and organic gardens. I also experimented with my own body and health challenges, as some dietary regimes are not for everyone. I began to enjoy the best of all worlds and create a cuisine for the twenty first century – a regime that worked for me in today’s busy world.
I took my knowledge into the kitchen and began to whip up quickie meals that would nourish me for the demanding schedule I was keeping. People started noticing my food and I started getting requests for a cookbook! I thought my methods were way too simple to warrant a book, but over time I realized people were starving for some of the knowledge I had to share.
I went on to create menu plans for food service professionals, private resorts and such entities like the Radisson Hotel. I was inspired to share nutritional education along with culinary training. One hardly works without the other, and the two together provide the understanding and tools to make lasting changes.
Whether someone wanted to lose weight, beautify their skin, improve joint health or enhance digestion, they achieved results with my recipes. I went on to teach home chef classes at Laguna Culinary Arts in California, and offer private consulting. With raving responses for the information, taste and quality of the food, I was finally convinced to share my techniques. Essential Cuisine was birthed as a DVD Series, so people could learn by watching.
It is my sincerest desire to help people eat better. There is so much joy in feeling healthy and food is one of the most powerful resources we have for healing mentally, physically and emotionally.”
