Established in July of 2014, Back 2 Basics Cooking sprouted from a passion to help others rediscover the joys of cooking and the benefits of wholesome food made from scratch.

​

Chef Ashley Nichols' lifelong love for cooking is at the heart of every class we offer. She believes in the power of homemade meals and is excited to share her knowledge, skills, and passion with you. Whether you're a curious beginner or a seasoned home cook, Chef Ashley's enthusiasm for cooking is contagious and will inspire you to explore new culinary horizons.

​

Back 2 Basics Cooking offers in-person cooking classes designed to level up your at-home culinary skills. We welcome participants of all ages and skill levels - from curious beginners to seasoned home cooks looking to learn new techniques and recipes. Our classes range from Mini Chef (ages 3-6) and Kids Culinary Cooking Club (ages 7-12), to Date Night, Cake Decorating 101, Sushi Party, and more. 

 

Our classes take place inside a commercial kitchen, where participants get hands-on experience in a fun, relaxed environment. Chef Ashley is always around to answer questions and guide you through the process. 

​​

Our primary focus is on teaching you skills and techniques that you can take back to your own kitchen. And the proof is in the pudding - or rather, the texts we regularly receive from parents and adult students alike, sharing their latest culinary creations with pride and joy.

 

At Back 2 Basics Cooking, we're about more than just food. We're about community. We are an active contributor to local schools and fundraising events, recognizing their essential role in our community. We encourage you to reach out, ask questions, and join us for a class. Together, we can make cooking a joyous part of your daily life. 

Happy Cooking!
