Welcome to Aprovecha Back to Basics Kitchen!

We are two chefs, Chelsea and Susanna, based in Boulder, Colorado.

Our passion lies in inspiring and empowering people to cook for themselves as well as discover the wonderful food resources unique to their homes. Here along the Front Range we are blessed with many local farms and businesses.

But we also love cooking for people.  Food has an incredible ability to bring people together, to heal, and to simply allow people to slow down and savor life.  We make all our meals with this power in mind as well as the freshest, highest-quality ingredients available with an emphasis on seasonal, local, and organic.

Our services:

Cooking Classes- Our What’s for Dinner? Kitchen Boot Camp is our recurring highlight. Next dates- October 2010.
Catering- Enjoy simple preparations of organic Colorado ingredients with rustic elegant style
Personal Chef Services- We’ll cook your food you, your family, or as gift for a loved one
Pantry Organization- Sometimes a little tidying help is all you need for a fresh start

Here’s a little taste of one of our summer campfire cooking classes at the Lyons Farmette:
