Seasonal Recipes
Chef Tina has been working as a high-end private chef in the Hamptons + NYC, a culinarian for wellness retreats, preparing family meals, and food writing for the past decade.
Tina was formally trained at Le Cordon Bleu where she learned the art of French cuisine. Upon graduation she was drawn to the energy of kitchen life as a line cook but she still found herself longing to be in front of the clients. She decided to split her time between cooking + working in front of the house.
Spending the majority of her young adult years working late-nights and then sleeping all day was the perfect recipe for an unhealthy life. Chef Tina decided to change her lifestyle and immerse herself in plant based cuisine, fitness, nutrition, meditation, and mental health.
She now creates seasonal healthy meals using classic techniques. All the while keeping it seasonal, practical, and flavorful!
VegHead Chef™ is all about using local seasonal ingredients with global flavors.
What People Are Saying
“Chef Tina is top notch! From her bubbling personality to her fresh and healthy spin on crowd favorites. Over the month of July, Tina cooked probably twenty plus meals for my family and friends. She did a great job scaling to whatever size our group was and putting together menus that appealed to all. I highly recommend her for day to day chef services and larger events. She brings an enthusiasm and energy to your kitchen that is truly contagious. I loved that she showed up with locally sourced produce and ingredients. You can tell she loves what she does, it come through in the incredible dishes she creates and serves. “

“We hired Tina to assist in healthy cooking for my husband who had several medical conditions. Tina listened to his likes and dislikes and cooked some amazing meals. She found ways for my husband to eat vegetables even though he hates vegetables. My husband, a picky eater did not even notice there was no meat in either dish. Tina always left the kitchen spotless.”
— Mrs. Dr. Gary Greenberg
“Chef Tina was simply fantastic and a gem! She cooked dinner for our family to celebrate my mother in law’s birthday, and she impressed our whole family with her professionalism, service, and quality of her cooking. She was super easy to communicate with and very helpful with menu planning, executed everything flawlessly. Her timing was superb as it’s not easy to cook and serve a large party. She made an out of this world black and white cookie cake that’s unforgettable. On top of this, she’s very sweet. We highly recommend her and would definitely work with Chef Tina again!”
