Fed up with the daily ‘what’s for dinner’ stress? Bored with the same old meals? No time for fancy recipes? Tired of rushing around the supermarket? Tight budget? Hate meal planning?
Time to breathe a sigh of relief...
In this live workshop you'll learn how to make no-stress tasty and nourishing meals from simple ingredients you can keep in your cupboards. No need for recipes!
Learn a super simple 3-step method for creating quick, easy and flavourful weekday meals. Decipher the pattern behind every recipe and free yourself from their rigid rules. Master the art of layering of flavours for delicious results every time.
For 'stuck in a rut' home cooks who want to feel good about cooking again.
Guess what...
More recipes are not solving the problem of feeling stuck and uninspired in the kitchen. The world doesn't need more recipes...
Instead, learn to tap into your very own intuitive sense for nourishment and change the way you think about cooking forever.
Enter the 'patterns not recipes' method:
a fool proof system to no-stress everyday meals (no recipes required)
This simple 3-step method breaks down the cooking process into an easy-to-follow structure, based on the timeless principles of flavour. When you follow structured patterns instead of recipes, everything you do in the kitchen becomes easily adaptable to match your preferences, your budget, your fridge contents and your time, day after day. Once you recognise the simple, repeatable steps that are the building blocks of almost any recipe, cooking becomes effortless, creative, and even fun again!

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is The Intuitive Cook?
I’m Katerina, a Greek girl now living in a Conwy valley in the UK. If you are local you'll know me as the co-owner of the Health & Food shop in Llanrwst. I’m a home cook just like you, not a chef. I am passionate about real, simple, tasty food everyone can make at home without the need to rely on recipes. I believe that all humans have an innate instinct for cooking and I’m here to help you unleash that inner chef and rediscover the ‘can do’ mindset of curiosity and fun that lies at the heart of all effortless cooking.
Who is this course for?
The workshop is anybody feeling stuck or stressed cooking at home, curious to rediscover a sense of calm and ease (and even fun!) in the kitchen.
I don't have much time to cook, is this for me?
Most of us don’t! The framework I teach is based around simple meals that can be prepared with minimal fuss and practically zero planning, saving you both time and headspace.
I cook for picky eaters or someone on a special diet, will this work?
Yes! Everything you will learn in this workshop is 100% flexible and adaptable to any style of eating.
I'm a beginner in the kitchen. Is this for me?
Absolutely. Building your cooking skills on principles rather than recipes early on is the best grounding you can get to blossom into the relaxed and confident cook you want to be.
I'm a confident cook already – will I learn something new?
I'm pretty sure you will. In my experience many confident cooks are still relying on recipes (those they know well, and those they try new) and very much enjoy the freedom and creativity to go beyond after taking one of my courses.
Are you going to provide recipes?
No, if you are looking for recipes this is not the right place. This workshop is based around patterns and principles behind the recipes, so that you no longer depend on having to follow them. If you have a lot of cook books already, you’ll learn to use them as a source of inspiration as you hone your intuition in the kitchen.

What's the value
