However, individuals who have been diagnosed with celiac disease need to follow a gluten-free diet in order to stay, and feel, healthy.

As a well-known Pastry Chef, Writer, and wellness advocate, Chef Glass has created products and recipes that are indulgent and GF. Chef Glass joined us to discuss all of her GF endeavors, along with announcing her newly co-founded business: Verveine Cafe & Bakery.

Brooke Siem was among the first generation of teenagers to be prescribed antidepressants. As Brooke was initially diagnosed and treated in the wake of her father's sudden death, this psychiatric intervention sent a message that something was pathologically wrong with her and taught her that her only solution was medication. For the next 15 years, Brooke took antidepressants exactly as prescribed. When she turned 30, she realized that maybe she was misdiagnosed and decided to taper off the medications with the help of her doctor. But stopping meds after 15 years isn't as easy as people may think. Join us as Brooke shares her story of antidepressants and antidepressant withdrawal. And don't forget to tune in next week as Dr. Mark Horowitz explains the medical side of Brooke's personal experience. To learn more -- or read the transcript -- please the official episode page.

Julieta Liebhoff has been under the brightest of lights and pressure to perform on Chopped on the Food Network and came out the champion! Working as a private chef & caterer for discerning—and sometimes demanding—A-List clients prepared her well. As a mom of three, she has to be a master juggler and running is what keeps her grounded and adds tremendous balance to her life. She recently lived out her dream, running a PR at the 125th Boston Marathon! At the age of 7, growing up in Rosario, Argentina, she began spending a lot of time in the kitchen & garden with her mom, watching her make breads & pastas from scratch, helping her trim the basil leaves to make pesto. She developed her deep connection with food, learned lots of recipes, and honed her knife skills. We discuss: playing sports as a kid, the value of team sports, traveling, experiencing other cultures, food, wine, coming to NYC, getting started at Balthazar, becoming a private Chef, her Chopped appearance, finding running & triathlons after becoming a mom, her experience of a lifetime at Boston, how her creativity sparks on runs, and community service, including volunteering at local races and donating her Chef services for NJ/NY charities. I'm so INSPIRED by Julieta's journey and look forward to seeing what's next for her! As a fellow foodie and wine lover, I enjoyed this one immensely! I hope you all enjoy this convo as much as we did!

Brooke Siem is an entrepreneur, professional chef, author, public speaker, world traveler, certified XPT Coach, and creator of the Fuckit Bucket™. She attended Middlebury College before moving to New York City and entering the world of food and wine. In 2011 co-founding Prohibition Bakery, New York City's first boozy bakery, and later authored the cookbook by the same name. Brooke was named one of Zagat's 30 Under 30 and became a champion on the Food Network's TV show “Chopped.” But Brooke's “successful” Manhattan life also fueled a lifelong battle with depression. Initially prescribed a cocktail of antidepressants at 15 years old, in the wake of her father's death, Brooke turned 30 and realized that not only was she still heavily depressed, but that she was also still on the same set of drugs prescribed to her as a teenager. After spending half her life—and her entire adult life—on antidepressants, she began to wonder: Who might I be without them? Today, Brooke's mission is to share the story of what happened after she got off all the drugs, one by one by one by one. Her story chronicles explosive and terrifying antidepressant withdrawal and the fight to manage the modern mental health system, all while demanding hope and forgiveness in the name of healing.

Nick was voted Best of Jackson 2020: Best Chef by Jackson Free Press, one of 2017’s Best Chef America, and The Best Of Mississippi Awards 2020 Best Chef.

We are revisiting the danger of working around fire and knives—this time with people who have never before done it. But she trains enormous and potentially dangerous animals, and he is good with firearms. Daniel Ibach and Courtnay Scott Gray are part of the team of couples opening gourmet butcher business Chop Shop Park City. They’re working with Paige and John Courtney. John’s a Chopped Champion, and she’s been a front-of-house manager and sommelier for some amazing restaurants. Dan and Courtnay have no food service experience, and are launching a gourmet food business in a big-money resort town during COVID. Maybe we mark this down as crazy? Dunno. You’re going to find these two no-nonsense, quick-as-lightning decision makers…
Phillip Dell has a lot of accomplishments under his belt a few examples are: 4 Time Grand Champion, Chopped Champion, firemaster contestant, cutthroat kitchen contestant and a lot more. We talk about his TV appearances, Food trucks, restaurants and all thing bbq.
This is the conversation for anyone who’s ever fantasized about crushing it by opening a food business—and considered going into business with a spouse in a high-stress, all-consuming career. We’re back with Chop Shop “power couple” Paige and John Courtney. With careers spent in big restaurants, they’re now in the resort town of Park City, Utah, preparing to open a nose-to-tail butcher shop. Besides dry-aged beef and the meat of lovingly raised animals, they’re planning to sell and deliver prepared foods and serve a limited menu. They’re also launching during a pandemic, and they’re in business with two other couples who’ve never been in food service. Not awe inspiring enough? John is also a Chopped Champion. His career working with fire and knives has been crowned with the $10,000 grand prize of Food Network throwdown shows. Paige jokes that her fame is in being John Courtney’s wife. But she has had her own stellar career as a front-of-house manager and a sommelier for some amazing restaurants.
Ever fantasize about having a restaurant? Or starting a business in which you have no experience? Or wonder, “Are we just crazy?” Here's your show. Like food and cooking? Even better. Chop Shop Park City is not yet open. Bonus: launching during a pandemic. The Las Vegas Review Journal called Paige and John Courtney a “power couple.” With careers in big restaurants, they're now dancing with danger. John is a Chopped Champion. Paige has worked for famous names of the Las Vegas strip, and been a front-of-house manager and sommelier for some amazing restaurants. Now, they’re launching a gourmet food biz in a big-money resort town with partners inexperienced in restaurants. Fun ensues...

A year ago, I gave a speech in Toastmasters. I opened up about a dark, uncertain time in my life - a time when everything that I'd been working on for years could have been jeopardized. In a matter of seconds. I wanted to make it fun and entertaining. So I used the TV cooking show, "Chopped" to illustrate how sometimes we have to take the most unlikely "ingredients" of our lives to make something worthwhile... to win in the end.

We return to our conversation with Chopped Champion Christian Hayes and his wife Christine, the entrepreneurs behind Dandelion Catering in Yarmouth, Maine. Christian won the “Pork On The Brain” edition of the Food Network’s Chopped—and admits he owes credit to his wife, whose pastry-chef wisdom got him through the dessert round. Today, we hear about the unique challenges of evolving, adapting, surviving and thriving. Communication is an especially big challenge when you come from people who don’t communicate. And you’d think being an artist would complicate things—but interestingly, Christian’s artistry as a one-time rock musician has brought some unexpected flavors to the fold.
In this episode, we have a Food Network Chopped Champion who credits his business-partner wife with helping him win the show's “Pork On The Brain” episode. Meet Christian and Christine Hayes of powerhouse Dandelion Catering in Yarmouth, Maine. It was Christine’s experience as a pastry chef that informed Christian’s championship dessert of dark chocolate pork blood pudding. And this points to the greater reality of their relationship of professionalism, cooperation, and joy for each other, their work, the universe and everything. Watching these two in an interview together was a gift. They’re a fun couple who’s learning-by-doing cooperation and partnership are an inspiration.

“Food is the gas in your tank, it’s the raw material of who you are, so why wouldn’t you eat well?” asks Chef Rachel Reuben, creator of the popular recipe blog and cooking school by the same name: Food Fix Kitchen. Her take on food goes right to the gut. “Most people take better care of their cars or their pets than they do their own bodies. They understand how high-octane fuel and regular maintenance makes a car run better, or how a high-quality diet affects their dog, but they have this disconnect when it comes to food and their own well-being. They’ll eat anything!” Reuben has been on a mission to change all that. Through her cooking, writing, teaching and personal appearances, Chef Rachel has delivered the credo she lives by: “cook well, eat well, live well,” teaching clients and groups how to best fuel their lives and loved ones. Her unique personal story is one of overcoming childhood abuse, traveling many life paths (actress, waitress, singer, caterer, stand-up comic, writer, graphic artist, and mother) to find fulfillment and culminating in a courageous, culinary-inspired reinvention. She acted on a life-long passion for cooking and went to professional culinary school at age 50, at the same time as her 19-year old son. “I like to say that we followed in my mother’s ‘FOODSTEPS’” says Chef Rachel, “because my mother was a private chef for nearly 40 years, working until the week she died at age 86. She was a Holocaust survivor and knew what it was to go without food, so she lived her life as a gastronomical celebration. Cooking and feeding people was her way of healing others and herself.” Today, Reubens’s son, Max, having worked for nearly 8 years for the famed chef, Thomas Keller in his restaurants, Per Se and The French Laundry, is currently an Executive Chef of the Penrose Room at The Broadmoor Resort in Colorado. Reuben is a Food Network’s Chopped Champion, a freelance food writer and founder of a successful NY metro area recreational cooking school and chef services business, Food Fix Kitchen. She has appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America several times and contributes to the abcnews.com Food Page. She has brought her culinary skills, living-well credo and message of “reinvention at any age” to schools, corporations, medical centers, destination spas, women’s groups and charity events. In 2016 Chef Reuben headed a healthy dining initiative at Rutgers University, NJ Institute of Food, Nutrition and Health. The project took the form of a new “from-scratch” restaurant, Harvest, which reflected the IFNH’s mission to combat degenerative diseases through healthy food and lifestyle. Reuben designed the menus and ran the project for it’s successful first year. Reuben’s focus these days is on teaching and sharing inspiration through what she calls “Recipe For Reinvention.” She explains, “I’ve been reinventing myself over and over throughout my life, whether in response to crisis or to my own curiosity and need for growth. I share my own insights and hope to help others ‘cook up’ their best selves along the way.” Chef Rachel leads Recipe For Reinvention workshops for women’s groups, and leads intimate luxury retreats in beautiful locations like Tuscany, the Amalfi Coast and Spain’s Andalucia region where her guests can have amazing culinary experiences and explore what feeds their soul. Her Instagram account #foodfixmama is lately more about “stirring things up” in the way she thinks and relates to life, than it is about food and cooking, but that’s to be expected with Reuben, who seems to approach life like it’s an opportunity for a delicious feast, but it’s all in what you bring to the table.
