Yes, I'm still working. I'm just terrible with updating social media. I'm just blown away by how the NWA community has embraced my little business. You guys keep me busy between personal chef clients, office catering, private dinners and private vacation cheffing. For now enjoy a happy & safe 4th!

Teacher appreciation week is always near & dear to my heart. We had the pleasure of serving breakfast to the "Wickedly Oz-Some" staff at FCAB this morning. We had a lot of fun with the theme. Flying monkey bread, Nessa Rose apple muffins, mini pancakes, breakfast casseroles, a Wicked fruit board and a pot of gold!

You guys know i'm terrible at remembering to take pictures. This last year has been a whirlwind of events. Eventually, I will get around to posting what i've been up to. That said this past weekend i had the privilege of serving up so delicious clean treats for Healthy Living With Regina 's yoga & wellness retreat @ Little Sugar Farm. Cutest little glamping spot. Despite the rain moving us inside, it was fabulous! Meeze platter, tabbouleh salad, rosemary skwered chicken kebabs, roasted vegetables, pita & yellow rice. Thanks for having me.

It's pi day! How are you celebrating?

Our Story

Personal Chef/Catering Service

Chef Jennifer was a teacher by trade (15 years in Middle School Science), but always had an interest in owning restaurant. When she left teaching 2006, that dream became a reality. She learned that restaurant life was probably not for her, as she was newly married to her AMAZING husband Todd, and they were starting a family. Flexibility was important. She learned about the field of "personal cheffing", and started Dashing Dinners Personal Chef and Catering Service. She went back to school at the El Centro School of Culinary Arts in Dallas, TX, and got her certification through the Culinary Business Academy and the United States Personal Chef Association. For the last 12 years, she has had the privilege of serving families from all over the Dallas/ Fort Worth Metroplex helping them by bringing family dinner time back to the table. Chef Jennifer prides herself in using the finest quality of meats and produce available and strives to create one of a kind menus that meet each client’s specific needs. As well as regular weekly services, she loves to cater “Private Dinner Parties” where the menus consist of nothing but the best! She also loves pairing food with excellent wine, so she has partnered with #scoutandcellar, a clean crafted wine company to bring excellent wine right to your door. As an Associate Manager with Scout and Cellar, she is constantly learning more and more about the importance of naturally crafted wines. She still uses her inner teacher when working with kids. She loves “cooking parties” and kids cooking camps. She and her family relocated to Iowa in the Fall of 2017, and is enjoying serving families in the Siouxland area. You can currently find her busy in the kitchen whipping up a delicious meal for one of her many clients.
