About Christine Van Bloem: Christine has been teaching cooking for a long, long time, and she is still excited to cook, teach, and share with you. After surviving a heart attack in 2020 and the loss of her brick & mortar cooking school business, Christine found new purpose cooking for her own empty nest. Post heart attack, Christine is reforming her butter-loving, heavy cream worshipping ways by making changes to how she cooks--taking things in a healthier direction, without doing a complete 180 and still keeping things flavorful and delightful. The key here is healthier. Christine is not afraid of butter, but she's using a touch instead of a stick. A tablespoon or two of cream or half-and-half, not a cup, and so on and so forth. And now that the kids are grown and living lives on their own, Christine is re-learning how to cook for two and sharing that process along the way.
Christine is currently training in culinary nutrition with The American College of Culinary Medicine and has researched The Mediterranean Diet & Menopause for her capstone project.
