A Word From The Chef:

Joanna Barajas – Creator of 80% Plant-Based Meal Plans

Hi, I’m Chef Joanna and I teach people how to cook to thrive at any age.

After 7 years of working as a culinary instructor, I’m more a food counselor than a chef. Unlike the Chopped contestants you’ll find on the Food Network, I’m about enjoying the process of cooking and making a home- not rushing it. I care about wellness.  

My approach to healthy eating is simple. It’s about lifestyle and choosing more vegetables and whole, unprocessed foods. I learned many healthy cooking techniques working with dieticians over the years. And I also found most of their patients were never taught how to create healthy, tasty food. 

With a few simple techniques, my students have created dishes they are proud of. They are so happy to share their new cooking knowledge with their kids and nourish themselves with these high quality foods. 

My goal is to transmit all my cooking knowledge to you. The recipes and techniques I share are based on my years working with chefs and dieticians. I simplify it so you don’t have to be a chef to cook healthy and delicious meals.

All the way, you’ll have access to me so that you can ask questions as you begin your ‘80% plant-based cooking’  journey.

See you in the kitchen!

Joanna Barajas

  • Good fats! (beneficial fats are essential for our brain, hormones, skin and more)

What it’s not…

How does it work?

  • I send you the meal plan on a Friday so you can begin prep on Sunday
  • You can pay for the sample week or select the monthly plan that works for you
  • Once you make the meals, you can give me feedback so I can make better customized menus the next month (Premium and VIP plans)

What if I have a specific need/diet?

  • If you need further customization: We set up a 15-minute phone call and you fill out a quick questionnaire
  • I create a custom menu based on your likes/dislikes and the time you have to cook

How can I access the menu?….I’m not great with computers

Once you sign up, you will get a link to your own Recipe Portal. You can comment and leave notes on the Portal. It’s very user-friendly and easy to access the recipes from any device- desktop or mobile. My clients say it’s easy to use. You’ll have lifetime access to these healthy recipes and can access them from anywhere.

My guarantee: 

If you don’t like the meal plan for any reason in the first week, I will give you your money back. I want you to make real changes in your life, and if I fail to make it easy for you then I’m not doing my job.

Testimonials: 

I woke this morning noticing my skin (face) was looking a lot better than usual. I’m putting that down to the consistently higher vegetable intake. I didn’t expect that and it happen so quickly. You are amazing.

The Grilled Portobello Quinoa Bowl is amazing, lots of flavour and texture, very satisfying…I’m converted when it comes to quinoa. I really enjoy the use of a vegetable or chicken stock which adds perfect flavour to the texture of quinoa.

-Mark
