Hi, I’m Courtney

I am a chef, author, creator, and dedicated mom passionate about transforming lives through wholesome, real food. I craft nutrient-dense, farm-sourced recipes rooted in traditional cooking techniques, and using only authentic ingredients. From my days in San Francisco’s high-pressure kitchens, armed with a Culinary Arts degree and a sourdough starter, to thriving as a homeschooler, entrepreneur, and businesswoman in Oregon’s lush McKenzie River Corridor, I pour my heart and soul into creating recipes that nourish and inspire. Join me on this heartfelt journey—I can’t wait to share it with you!

At Butter For All, I’m committed to nutritional excellence and food integrity through sustainable practices. I recommend sourcing sustainable pastured meats, raw dairy ingredients, and organic, non-GMO grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes—preparing the latter by soaking, sprouting, or fermenting to enhance digestion and nutrition. I encourage you to shop locally for organic seasonal produce, support small family farms and biodiverse local food producers whenever possible, and eat seasonally while preserving and fermenting foods for future use.
