About Andie




Good food, good people, good times, life is too short for anything less.

Irish Proverb
My culinary career began in 2010, when I quit the film industry to heal myself from an eating disorder that almost took my life.  I discovered the power of organic foods, wholefoods and superfoods as sources of nutrition and health and was inspired to specialise in that field.

I have travelled the world to learn and understand traditional recipes and techniques, adding superfood ingredients to create meals that are both nutritious and delicious.

Combined with formal culinary training and studies in holistic nutrition, I soon gained a reputation as a superfood chef in the United States.
I taught cooking classes for two years at Whole Foods in Los Angeles, appeared on TV and online, developed healthier menus for top restaurants, catered for wellness retreats and ran my own all-organic Hollywood restaurant, C2 Organics.

Now based in my home town Sydney, Australia, I still travel to LA for clients and appearances, and have cookbooks and US TV commitments in the pipeline.

Throughout it all, I’ve stayed true to one goal: to share the amazing healing power of superfoods with the world.

Food Portfolio

Andie’s Kitchen is not limited to a specific cuisine – our repertoire of recipes is truly multicultural, and can be adapted to the needs of raw vegan, vegan, vegetarian, cleansing, gluten free, gluten-free vegetarian, paleo and organic humane omnivore diets.
“I struggled with bulimia from the age of 14 – it lasted almost 17 years,”   Andie reveals.  “In my last near-death emergency admission to hospital – one of several over the years – I finally realised I needed to change my life. I’d been exposed to conventional healing methods time and time again with no real progress, so I turned to alternative healing."

“A successful actor, I gave up life as I knew it and set out on a new direction. I studied alternative treatments, including neuro-linguistic programming, meditation, reiki, The Journey by Brandon Bays, and Christine Bannigan’s healing methods. Through my studies, I became aware that my eating disorder was a habit I needed to break."

“Eating organic foods slowly helped me overcome my negative patterns and mindset. Introducing superfoods, flowers and special herbs into my diet aided my journey to recovery. I was able to get my life back and with that a passion I didn't know existed inside me – to pursue a culinary career that would aid others suffering many types of addiction.”

Why choose Andie's Kitchen?

We Are Friendly

In Andie’s former career in acting, she spent an invaluable year teaching drama to the children of Darlinghurst Public School. “This training help me understand the value of patience, kindness and mindfulness to assist the learning journey,” she says. “It taught me that not all of us are made the same and we need to have an open heart to understand each individual’s needs.

“In my classes and workshops and as a cooking show host, I express honesty and what I believe to be my truth. You can take what resonates with you. You are the master of your own life – only you can know what truly works for your diet and healing needs.”

We have magic

An important part of Chef Andie’s method is food alchemy. “My healing process took me into the Ecuadorian Amazon, here I discovered a medicine man who taught me the method of healing foods and intentions. He taught me that to awaken the healing process, you need to become the channel of that healing energy."

“By adding Reiki or mindful thought as you cook, leaving all negative thoughts and daily troubles behind, you can truly activate this process. We sing and laugh in my kitchen. We take a breath in and ask for an intention in all our dishes. I have found the majority of the time when anyone finishes feasting on my cuisines they are lighter, happier and fuller.”

We love organic

You are what you eat – so don’t be fast, easy, cheap or fake! For Chef Andie’s cooking method to work, the food source must be organic. “There is no compromise here,” she says. “Eat organic and turn your back on fruit and vegetables grown with pesticides and herbicides, and reject meat from factory, caged and tortured animals.”

Food is the best carrier for the effective absorption of vitamins, minerals and the potential healing effects of superfoods, flowers and spices. It's vital to only eat organic food for the full experience and life-changing effects food can have on the human body, mind and soul.

We Are Creative

Colour your world and expand your imagination. In Chef Andie’s cooking classes you will learn to use many different superfoods to colour and brighten food instead of artificial chemical dyes. This healthy rainbow palette will not only add valuable micronutrients vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to your diet, but help re-awaken your inner child. Just as children spend hours colouring and drawing, the natural colours of superfoods can release the artist in you.

We Are Responsible

Currently our world is in a crucial condition, our oceans are polluted, our animals are becoming extinct, climate is changing and our icebergs are melting.  We have been irresponsible with the beautiful planet we call home.  

It's time to gain conscious choices of how we move forward, not only for the future of our planet and our Children, but for a better quality of life for ourselves, potentially preventing life altering disease and devastating effects to our home.  Let’s start with our food source. Demand cleaner food sources!  Our food has become solely a profit machine with no respect to life or our planet.

We Are Sustainable

I was invited to participate in the sustainability fishing convention in 2015 in Palos Verde, CA while representing Whole Foods. For my dish, I created a seasonal Supergreen King Salmon burger on hemp bread.

In Andie's Kitchen, we take pride in working hard to ensure all our practices are sustainable, from the fish we use, to promoting a vegan approach to your diet. When ordering beef, we choose grass-fed, free- roaming farms. Our chicken dishes are always organic, and from a free to roam farm. Our menus are seasonal and, when possible, local. All our superfoods are organic. These practices are at the core of our ideals, and we plan to educate the world on creating healthy, delicious Superfood diets.

What people say?

Stepping into Andie's culinary world is like tasting pure passion. Her food is delicious but the way she is able to bring together people and educate them is true magic. I've been blessed to coordinate a number of Andie's cooking classes over the years, and watching her charm the audience and create dishes that blend world's together has been such a joy for me. The only thing better than Andie's food is her personality. I'd recommend Andie for any and all events.

What people say?

Where do we begin with a women like Andie! Her way of cooking brings you to a whole new relationship with food. It is no longer a choice between healthy or tasty, with Andie you ALWAYS get both. Food becomes a love dance between what your body need and what your tongue wants. She speaks to you through her plates of magic and you can feel it from your mouth to your heart. It calls to you in a way that you finally understand how food should have always been. Her blend of herbs, flowers and superfoods will leave you speechless and forever wanting. Food will never be the same after you have experienced what Andie DISHES out ;) Her specialty with Organic Farm to Table manners and simply divine nutrients will feed your soul and help heal wounds you thought only a Physiatrist could.

What people say?

I have had the immense pleasure of not only enjoying Andie's incredible food, but also working with her on the WB web series Cooking on High.   By drawing on her past eating disorder, she ensures that her foods nourish the spirit, bringing light and love to each dish; whether it is singing to a soufflé as it cooks or using superfoods that specifically target the illness or ailments of her clients. Andie is a consummate professional; she cooks with her heart and her soul, creating healthy superfoods that heal those who dine on her cuisine.

Outside of the professional realm, I was delighted to be a part of her weekly test dinners, where she explored how to incorporate superfoods into various traditional ethnic cuisines, as well as diets. I can attest that her vegan casserole is, hands down, the most delicious vegan dish I have ever had the joy of eating. Having already had a multitude of the dishes she cooked in their native countries, I can say with confidence that hers were just as delicious as the original recipes and incredibly unique because of her superfood additions.  Her variations on a range of regional dishes were some of the most inspiring meals I have eaten; whether it was Jewish, Latin, Asian or European, she transported her diners through her food. She is a treasure of a chef!
