Heartful Earth Cuisine isn’t just the name of her company but it also describes what she offers and believes in. Heartful- is a word she created to describe food that is made with heart and love and is also good for the heart and the whole body! “Earth cuisine” signifies that in cooking and healing and helping people there are no boundaries, and also that the food she prepare and teaches is a blend of her own tastes, learning, family recipes, and is influenced by the countries she has visited and her own heritage. It also means that real food comes from the earth. Food that heals us also will be good for the earth. Earth Cuisine’s meaning was expanded after a trip to Italy and the Vatican and watching an amazing film. Actions and foods that nourish the earth and mind, body and spirit will also nourish and heal us.
Anisha’s idea of downtime is cooking, recipe creation, walking outdoors, yoga, reading and learning, and exploring cuisines, cultures and history while traveling.

Heartful Earth Cuisine 
Are you able to provide daily personal chef home-cooked meals that cater to the special health needs of my parents, are delicious and ethnically diverse, and evolve over time as needed? We can provide specific dietary guidelines, but to mention some relevant parameters: my mother is on chemotherapy at the moment so needs to eat a fair amount of protein (soy is especially good) while also taking special care to avoid germs / raw foods unless peeled / reheated foods. She also sometimes has trouble with digestion so especially appreciates smoothies and soups. My father would like to lose weight but is a picky gourmet, so is seeking lower calorie but delicious food. They especially like global foods, so a mix of western and Asian especially. They live in 77042 and have a large kitchen with good space for a personal chef to operate. We are looking for someone to start as soon as possible. Thanks!
