First, learn how to make crispy arancini with Arborio rice topped with Parmesan and served with roasted tomato chutney. Next, master the art of making handmade pasta by making and cutting the dough and stuffing ravioli. Then, whip up a creamy Alfredo sauce to pair with it.

Chef Karen was a lot of fun and she brought positive energy along with the ingredients for an absolutely delicious meal. It was a fun time cooking with my husband of 37 years. I highly recommend.

Chef Karen is absolutely amazing! She’s not only incredibly kind and outgoing, but she also has a natural talent for making everyone feel confident in the kitchen. Her tamales class was fun, engaging, and delicious! Chef Karen’s passion for food and teaching truly shines through and her business, Kreativ Soul, is the perfect treat for any occasion. Whether you’re looking to learn something new, celebrate with friends, or just enjoy delicious food, you can’t go wrong with picking Chef Karen. Highly recommend!
