We had our 20 year

We had our 20 year Anniversary at my house. Given that my wife has so many allergies it’s always a role of the dice when we go out and I always wish I don’t have to work so hard to have a safe meal. My wife hasn’t had gravy in 15 years and didn’t know it could be done with Tapioca.

Aubree asked so many specific questions and wanted to be sure that every detail was covered. I loved how communicating and detailed she was.
My wife just said to me, “she was a sweetheart and blended right in”. Oh, one more thing – she was on time. No one is on time anymore these days.

Miz en Place! So

Miz en Place! So fun to learn a new cooking term – having all your ingredients ready to go for the recipe. I got to play with FIRE! We did creme brulee ricotta with fresh raspberries. Aubree made the suggestion to add simple syrup to sweeten the mocktail next time. Appetizers were good! Gluten-free Spanakopita! I liked how the recipes were Gluten-free but very tasty! I would definitely have Aubree do a romantic couple’s dinner for us!

Aubree is positive and friendly!

Aubree is positive and friendly! We had Aubree come for a private cooking lesson, as a Christmas present to the family. What fun! We learned new recipes, cooking tips and had fun creating a meal together! Aubree was fun, knowledgeable and efficient! She easily navigated around gluten free, competing likes/dislikes and low sugar dietary needs. She even supported our mocktail request! Aubree did all the preparation, shopping and came to our house! Aubree is such a find! I think our next event with Aubree will be a double date meal!

We were lucky to have

We were lucky to have Aubree join us on the night of our engagement. She was great with communication and coordination ahead of time, and cooked a delicious meal for us as we celebrated our special night. Her recommendations led to a fantastic menu and wine pairing and her warm personality made sharing our story that much more fun. She even made time for our dog and brought take-out containers for all the left-overs. We couldn’t recommend Aubree enough; our private dinner for two was perfect!

Aubree is an absolute dream!

Aubree is an absolute dream! She was our chef for our fellowship retreat and the food was so good! We had quite a few dietary restrictions and she accommodated every single one. We even had a surprise restriction and she quickly found a solution. Our guests were absolutely thrilled. I wish I could have her cook for me every day. Highly, highly recommend.

My family and I have

My family and I have been fortunate enough to have Aubree, chef and owner of Holistc Home Cookin’, cook for us in our home every week for the past 9 months. Aubree is an amazing chef and wonderful human being who we’ve gotten to know well over the past several months. Each week, we plan our menu for the next week, and she makes the entire process as easy as possible – from grocery shopping for us to having everything perfectly portioned out to eat. Aubree is skilled at cooking anything and everything you can think of! She’s particularly amazing at tailoring the menu and each dish based on food allergies and preferences. We’re so grateful to Aubree for keeping our family fed with healthy, delicious, high quality food – all while juggling our busy careers and family life. We cannot recommend Aubree enough – she’s a dream!!

If you have a

If you have a busy family; work, kids, sports & more I would seriously consider Aubree’s services. It has not only relieved a lot of stress knowing dinner was planned and ready to go but we have been eating much healthier, homemade meals. It has helped ease us into implementing some dietary restrictions that we weren’t sure we could do ourselves. She showed us we could keep eating things we like with some adjustments (trying to go dairy free). My teen has loved all the food and even has started making suggestions on things she would like Aubree to make. I can’t wait to have Aubree do a dinner party for us soon!

We had a large group

We had a large group renting a house, and we loved having Aubree prepare a gourmet meal for us. Three courses, timed perfectly, expertly and creatively prepared. She was so friendly and flexible. It was the first time I’ve been able to enjoy a whole group meal, given some dietary restrictions. It allowed the group to relax and enjoy, and she and staff left the kitchen spotless. Would recommend!

Leslie

Aubree is friendly, fun, and

Aubree is friendly, fun, and a fantastic chef. My husband and I had the opportunity to invite Aubree into our home on two occasions for personal chef services. From start to finish she focused on meeting our dietary needs in a creative way that opened us up to new recipes and cooking techniques. Aubree not only prepared food she also allowed us to be a part of the planning and execution of each dish. The recipes she developed and taught us have become regular staples in our home. Thank you, Aubree for making us a healthier family!

Heather

Aubree and Chris are absolutely

Aubree and Chris are absolutely amazing! I’m so grateful I found them. We are a busy family of 5 and I have many dietary restrictions. Aubree and Chris are knowledgeable and accommodating. Having their help was such a blessing and eased our hectic schedule.

Stephanie

Aubree is just fantastic!

Aubree is just fantastic! She cooked 2 amazing meals for our family while we were on vacation. She was so easy going, friendly and made a 5 star meal seem effortless. I highly recommend her. She is AWESOME!!

We hired Aubree to cook

We hired Aubree to cook dinner for my sister’s bachelorette party at a home that we rented in Delaplane, Virginia. She also prepared breakfast for us to have the following day. Each of our 7 guests – most particularly the guest of honor – were incredibly impressed by Aubree’s delicious cooking, kind demeanor, and abundant thoughtfulness. My sister has some challenging dietary restrictions and Aubree crafted a fantastic menu that each guest enjoyed. Ordinarily, my sister has to eat some uniquely prepared item or some fraction of what everyone else can eat – Aubree ensured that she could eat each item on the menu. This delighted my sister even before her first bite – and the happiness only increased from there. Every guest loved the meal – we talked all weekend about the incredible roasted peach-strawberry mocktail, the incredible pineapple salsa and mahi mahi, the Thai-style guacamole, and the rice and green beans. The breakfasts were delicious too and just as thoughtful. We were so so appreciative and would recommend Aubree to everyone.

Wow!! Aubree’s cooking was the

Wow!! Aubree’s cooking was the highlight of my sister’s bachelorette weekend (for a large group of 14 women!)! The food was amazing and all locally sourced and organic. She was so kind and professional! Although she offered to work together to create an original menu, we ended up choosing one of her winter menu ideas because it sounded so delicious. Not only was the dinner one of the best I have had, but she also cleaned up everything and made the night run so smoothly. I highly recommend her! I hope to use her services again in the future.

Emma

Aubree made our 50th anniversary

Aubree made our 50th anniversary celebration even more special with her dinner and the way she handled it. The food was delicious, the menu she developed responded to the various needs and tastes of our family, and the service was professional. My wife and I also enjoyed spending time with her.

Bruce

Aubree has blessed us with

Aubree has blessed us with her cooking for awhile now. Anything I ask, she is able to make. I have trusted her in my home since day 1 and have no regrets in doing so. She follows all of our dietary restrictions and the food tastes AMAZING!!!! I have 3 kids and they all love her cooking. I would recommend her to anyone, but especially those who are gluten free and have other dietary issues. When she comes and cooks you come home as if no one was there as she cleans up well too! She is great and I will continue to budget in order to keep her in our lives 🙂

Alyssa

We were renting a beautiful

We were renting a beautiful farm house in Madison, VA for a special getaway for 16 of us. Aubree’s services were recommended and we could not have been happier with her food & her service! It was a pleasure communicating with Aubree from the very beginning! Thank you very much, and we hope to utilize your wonderful & caring cooking skills again!

Lisa

We had planned a bachelorette

We had planned a bachelorette weekend at a gorgeous manor house in Middleburg, VA and figured since the dinning room was so fantastic, it would be great to have someone cook for us instead of going out! The owner of the house put us in touch with Aubree and it was one of the best decisions we made for that weekend. Aubree was super easy and fun to work with through the whole process, from menu selection to execution of the meal. We chose an appetizer, salad, meal and dessert and everything was delicious. She was super professional, but so easy to talk to and left the kitchen spotless after she was done which was a huge bonus! I highly recommend her for a fun, delicious and personal experience. All my girls were thrilled with the meal.

My husband and I have

My husband and I have long commutes, which makes the question, ‘What’s for dinner’, an extra challenge for us. Neither of us had the time or energy to consistently prepare healthful meals, yet we both value family dinner time and healthy foods. This is where Aubree has been invaluable. We’ve enjoyed her cooking and meal planning for the past year. It has been a huge stress relief for us to not have to scramble to make dinner plans at the end of a long day, or spend a lot of time and energy preparing meals. At a cost that is comparable to eating out for our family of four, we’ve had much healthier meals, with more variety. Aubree has catered to the particular food restrictions and preferences of our family members, and her meals taste amazing. Thank you, Aubree!

Working with Aubree was such

Working with Aubree was such a treat! From the very start, she was professional, enthusiastic, and creative when planning a menu for my sister’s bachelorette party. Aubree was determined to make it the best meal ever for my sister, and even taught herself new skills and recipes to satisfy my sister’s quirky palate. Aubree came over prepared with a detailed plan for the evening and let us help at every step so we could “play chef.” She has a vibrant personality and is so knowledgeable about healthful cooking. Her food was FABULOUS. We especially loved the BBQ pineapple chicken and the creme brûlée. I like that she used high quality ingredients and designed the menu with health and big flavor in mind. HIGHLY recommend her.

Corinne

Aubree and her assistant cooked

Aubree and her assistant cooked dinner for my birthday party for 16 guests and it was delicious! She worked with me for weeks prior to the event to choose the perfect menu and it was executed smoothly. She arrived on time with everything prepped and ready to go, and it made my birthday so stress-free. Aubree is really easy to work with and pleasure to have at my celebration. I would definitely recommend her to others.

Virginia

I hired Aubree to cater

I hired Aubree to cater a dinner with 7 friends for my 40th birthday. Everything about her is amazing— she was incredibly responsive and helpful prior to the event to finalize the menus, was sweet and wonderful to be around as she prepared dinner, and the food itself was spectacular. I would highly recommend working with her for any event you’d like to have be a smashing success. Thank you, Aubree, for helping me enjoy a special night completely free of stress. It’s a memory I will always cherish!

Teresa

I hired Aubree to cook

I hired Aubree to cook for my family when we stayed in a Bed and Breakfast for my husband’s surprise 60th birthday weekend. I am an accomplished cook, and had reservations asking Aubree to make a prime rib, something that I cook every Christmas and my family loves. But she pulled it off and far exceeded my expectations. I even asked her to come into the dining room to tell her how amazing the dinner was, and my family applauded her. Not only did she provide a flawless meal, she also shopped for all of the groceries we would need for the weekend and prepared breakfast casseroles and lunch items as well. Her assistant went above and beyond by running into town to grab some last minute items, and helped serve the meal quickly and efficiently. We were beyond pleased, and would recommend Aubree to anyone looking for a personal chef or caterer.

We got a week of

We got a week of Aubree’s services as a Christmas gift (best friends ever!) and enjoyed simply awesome food. Aubree’s cooking is amazing, and allows one to fantasize all day in anticipation of coming home to the prepared meals. However, her real strength is in working with her clients to develop customized menus that reflect very specific needs/tastes/preferences. We went back and forth over several days until we’d hit upon the perfect combinations. The day she was here to cook we came home to a house that smelled almost as good as everything tasted, and in spite of working around two big, energetic dogs with no sense of boundaries, left the kitchen cleaner than it was when she arrived. Everything was perfectly packaged with clear directions on how to finish, and we loved it all. We’re looking forward to using her again in the future and recommend her without hesitation!

Marty

I called Aubree to help

I called Aubree to help me with a dinner party I was having for a large group of vegans. While in the planning stages, she was very responsive to my inquiries and emails. She also gave me some great guidance for menu ideas. My guests and I were delighted with the food. Knowing that Aubree had tackled the more difficult dishes for my party freed me up to relax and enjoy my guests. I will definitely use her services in the future.

Pam

Aubree has been providing in-home

Aubree has been providing in-home chef service for our family for the past year; with her help, our family is eating healthier and enjoying more great meals at home. Aubree’s love of cooking and genuine desire to understand her client’s needs really stand out. With her easy to follow instructions & well labeled containers, I can have a healthy, beautiful and flavorful meal on the table in no time. I especially appreciate the grocery shopping service that she provides as well. And thanks to Aubree’s help, I can now entertain at home with ease and confidence! Aubree’s cooking is a hit with our family!

Kim

Its hard to choose what

Its hard to choose what to highlight about Aubree and her home cookin but I have to think that starting with Aubree herself is where its at! She is such a hard worker, easy to speak with and positive energy, Im simply thrilled she worked the Vixen Vintage Photoshoot event! Her tasty appetizers were light and refreshing, the perfect combination of savory and sweet (goat cheese dates rolled in cinnamon! Yummy)! Thank yoh so much Aubree for all your hard work, can’t wait to work with you again!

Hanna

I’ve worked with Aubree as

I’ve worked with Aubree as my personal chef for almost a year now, and find her indispensable. Because of a variety of chronic health issues, I’ve needed to be on a very restricted diet; something that would be very difficult for me to shop for and prepare for myself. Aubree handled all the details and does my week’s cooking in one visit. She is fast, efficient and very clean. I highly recommend her.

Cory

Aubree is a wonderful chef

Aubree is a wonderful chef and a wonderful person. Very easy to work with ,I have cows milk allergies and celiac disease .She catered our 25th renewal ceremony. We had it at a winery for 22 people. The menu was Cold Barbequed Salmon, Summer Chicken Salad with fresh greens, Pomegranate Kale with goat feta, toasted walnuts and wild rice, Cucumbers salad with Roasted Chickpeas,Balsamic and pear roasted Portabellas with Quinoa ,green onions and almonds. There was also white bean hummus with a veggie plater and gluten free crackers and a fresh fruit salad. The food was amazing my guests could not believe the food was all gluten free. If I ever have a signicant event I would hire Aubree in a heartbeat.

Robin

Aubree is first and foremost

Aubree is first and foremost a fantastic person! Her services are top notch as she is constantly researching food and recipes to provide all of her clients with a menu adjusted to their needs. Aubree cooked for my family while I was vegan, but my kids were not. However, I still wanted us to all eat healthy. She is very accommodating to any dietary need and will also shop for you. I have recommended her to many of my friends and clients because I completely trust her business ethics. Aubree has continued to impress everyone I have referred. Thank you Aubree for being so fabulous!!
