Cotswolds Nutrition Chef

Some days it feels like everyone’s an expert and no one agrees.

One day you are told coffee will ruin you. Next day you are told it might save your life.
Meat is poison. Meat is necessary.
Carbs will kill you. Carbs are fuel.

Most of my clients are smart enough to spot nonsense but even then it can get confusing.
One scroll online and you are buried under ten conflicting takes and sponsored hacks.

So here’s my question: when advice feels so opposite, how do you handle it?
What do you trust?
What do you ignore?
Do you go by feel, by habit, by someone you trust?

I know what I stick to when I cook for my family or my clients but I want to hear how you filter the noise.

Drop it in the comments & let’s see how people really figure this out.

THE RULE I COOK BY:

You can spend a fortune on the table, the wine, the plates. None of it matters if the bird was raised wrong.

One good ingredient makes the meal. A cheap shortcut ruins it.

I trust my farmers, I trust my fishmonger, I trust my process.
And my clients trust me... because they know that bit never changes.

Call it old-fashioned. Call it slow. Call it proper.

SHOOT DAYS THAT STAY WITH YOU

There is something about a good day in the field that you cannot fake. The dogs, the guns, the land, the people. By the time the last bird is done, everyone’s cold, tired, and hungry for more than just food.

What you serve at the end either makes the day or forgets it.

I have fed small private shoots and royal family gatherings where the table was the real trophy at the end of the day. Honest game, cooked properly, warm drinks, conversation that goes well past the meal.

If you know what that feels like, you know why I do it this way. If you don’t, maybe this season you should find out.

Send me a message. Your field, your people, my food.

NOT TUPPERWARE, NOT CHEAP BULK

People see meal prep and think plastic boxes lined up in sad rows. That is not me.

When I say meal prep, I mean real food that makes your week run smoother. Proper produce, meals done to fit your life, kids fed with zero fuss, you eating better without the cheap shortcuts.

This is not a calorie-count service or influencer nonsense. This is a private chef approach for people with better things to do than stand at the cooker every night.

You want to come home, open the fridge, heat it, eat it, get on with your life. That is what I do for families, busy CEOs, sports pros who care what they put in but do not have hours to plan it.

One clear plan, one proper stock of your fridge, one less thing on your mind.

Cotswolds Nutrition Chef is looking for a dependable part-time chef to work alongside Ross Rochelle, supporting fresh meal prep, private dining and seasonal events.

This role suits someone who understands quality ingredients and knows how to keep standards high when it matters. You’ll help prepare clean, seasonal meals for private clients, assist with plating and service for intimate dinners, maintaining the kitchen and keeping it well stocked and organised, and step in to lead when Ross is off-site.

Hours are flexible, typically two or three days a week to start, with extra days for events as needed. Ideal for an experienced chef who wants steady, rewarding work without fuss.

You should be based in or near the Cotswolds and happy to travel for the occasional off-site event.
If you’re interested, send Ross a short email with your experience, current work and when you’re available to start.

“I trained in Michelin kitchens. Now I build meals for real life.
Back in the day, every garnish was obsessive. Here in the Cotswolds, I bring that standard but with real food goals.

For busy founders, new parents, athletes, if you want performance on the plate:
🔪 Precision prep
⚙️ Strategic macros
🔥 Chef quality

Your meals should do something: keep you sharp, recharged, in control.
Ready to level up your fuel game?
Let’s make it happen.

Your time is not negotiable.
You’ve got 3 back-to-back calls, 40 unread emails, a school pickup, and a brain that needs fuelling, not guessing.

You don’t need:
❌ a macro app
❌ a new diet
❌ to waste 3 hours trying to “eat clean”

You need:
✅ food that shows up ready
✅ built to fuel performance
✅ and tastes like a private chef made it because one did.

I design food systems that match the pace, pressure, and precision of people who don’t have time to mess about.

If that’s you, let’s build something sharp. Something that keeps up.

👉 Drop me a DM with “EFFICIENCY” and we’ll talk options...

Dry chicken and Tupperware rice isn’t a personality.

If you’ve ever forced down bland, beige ‘meal prep’ in the name of health, you’re not alone.

I've worked with too many clients who thought they had to suffer to see results.
Eating boiled eggs and counting almonds like they were rationing fuel for a space mission.

No flavour. No joy. No chance of it lasting.

I don’t build food like that.
I build food that works and makes you want to eat well.

That means stuff like:
🍽 Herb‑crusted cod, crispy skin
🌶 Roasted veg with harissa and garlic oil
🥑 Avocado-lime mash you’ll want seconds of

This isn’t cheat-day food. This is every day food that fuels your brain, body, and appetite.
👉 Want meals that feel like a treat and still move the needle?

DM me. I’ll show you how we make eating well actually stick.
