Cooking is a magical experience that allows us to tap our creative energies while providing ourselves and our families with true nourishment. Join me in this wonderful act that transforms the gifts of the earth into meals.

I teach cooking classes that provide imaginative techniques and recipes to people who want to enjoy healthy foods. Many of the classes specialize in quick and easy techniques. All classes focus on creating delicious foods because--

if you don't enjoy it, it's not healthy.

I designed this website to be a sample of the Open Sesame experience: fun, informative, and tasty. Cruise around and report back to me if you enjoy yourself or if you feel there are missing topics. If you live in Western North Carolina and would like information about classes visit "about" above, or contact me at sabrina(AT)opensesamecooking(DOT)com.
