“Chef Brenda is a pleasure to work with! Brenda is our go-to resource for K12 recipe development and videos, and she is also an excellent public speaker. We are proud to have her represent Pacific Northwest Canned Pears.”
“Chef Brenda designed training sessions for North Dakota Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) personnel about fruit and vegetables, food safety, and preparing healthy meals. Her presentations were exceptional, professionally done, and provided tailored, relevant information to our audience.”
“Chef Brenda is amazing. Her creativity with turkey is exceptional; she is thorough and provides every detail and extra tips to make it simple and easy for any K12 staff and district to include her turkey recipes on the menu. She is a pleasure to work with, and is always up for any challenge I give her. We are blessed to have Chef Brenda as an extension of the Butterball K12 team.”
“Professional, creative, knowledgeable, on schedule, energetic, an excellent presenter, delightful to work with and, in a word, superb! I could go on and on about how impressed I have been with Chef Brenda’s skills, acumen, vision and over-all capabilities. Her culinary training plus her RDN make her doubly qualified for any food communication program. She took basic information about Washington State Potato products, added food safety, storage and prep tips, created new recipes and then presented all that in an energetic, enjoyable and instructive video for school nutrition directors. I hope I get the opportunity to work with her again.”
