I have some exciting news!  I have always wanted to take my cooking instruction online since I am so limited as to how many people I can teach in person on a daily basis. So I am thrilled to have partnered with Clean Eating Magazine and Vegetarian Times to offer a 7 week (6 week for Vegetarian Times followers) course on BATCH COOKING which starts on September 11th!

You don’t need to spend more time in the kitchen to create a satisfying dinner—you just need to cook smarter. In my new Clean Eating Academy course, I am going to teach you how to easily prepare an entire week of meals in a single day.  This is a life-changing series of classes that will teach you innovative make-ahead recipes with in-depth lessons on planning and cooking. It’s batch cooking at its best, and it’s going to revolutionize the way you cook forever.

You all know how I rely on being organized for the week ahead with respect to planning out my meals and doing a little meal prep.  It’s only way I would be able to feed my family without stress!  In this course I am sharing all my tried and true secrets!  Here’s a peek at the course syllabus:

  1. Cuanto cuesta el curso? como hago para comprarlo el curso de bachcooking? no veo donde puedo comprarlo

    • Hola Maria. El curso es diferente al que se ofreció por medio de Clean Eating Magazine. Hoy es el ultimo día pare registrarse al curso. Esta pagina tiene mas información: https://pamelasalzman.kartra.com/page/mealprepbootcamp
      El curso es en ingles y cuesta $297 pero con el coupon MEAL100 se puedo ahorrar $100.

  2. Would you be able to join late?

    • Unfortunately not. Sorry!

  3. I’d love to take this course but am unsure I can make the time commitment. Do you have an idea about how long each class will be? 30 minutes? 1 hour?

    • Hi! I’d say it would take 2-3 hours to go through each lesson carefully. Could be quicker if you’re short on time. But you can always come back and review lessons later if you don’t have time to go through each lesson entirely in one week.

  4. Pamela… how much time should I plan on to watch each course? Thank you!

  5. This is a great idea Pamela! So excited to do it – is it live or can you watch on your own time? Once purchased, can you re-watch archived classes? Will you be providing any materials to download for the class?

    • Yay! You can watch on your own time. You can re-watch. Yes to materials!

  6. Can’t wait for this! So excited! Tried to register a few times this morning and the registration doesn’t’ seem to be working. I will try again later. Can’t wait to have you in my kitchen!
