About US

Howdy! My name is Natalie Anderson, I am a wife, homeschool mama, DIY crafter and foodie. I grew up learning how to cook with my Mimi, honed my skills over a decade in the food industry and now take joy in feeding my family and friends. Cooking is one of my love languages. I love to feed people and provide food that speaks to them. 

As I mentioned I am a homeschool mama and our oldest just finished her first year of college. In speaking to her we realized that her peers do not have the basic skills necessary to cook for themselves and they rely a lot on fast food or restaurants. Now, lets be honest, inflation is CRAZY right now. To go out to eat , even at a fast food restaurant our family of 4 costs over $50. And that is fast food!!

Here at Young Sizzle we noticed that there are not cooking classes for teens unless you are willing to drive to Austin, and who has time for that. We want to help out our village here in the Hutto/Georgetown/Round Rock/Taylor/Pflugerville areas and offer cooking classes for your Pre-Teen/Teens ages 10-18.  Our goal is to teach your kids the necessary skills it takes to make a meal for themselves and your family.  They will learn: knife skills, culinary terminology, food safety requirements, differences between cooking versus baking and lifelong skills they can carry into adulthood.

Life is hard, life is busy and many parents just don't have the time to teach their kids how to cook. Maybe it is that you never had a chance to learn to cook while you were growing up.  Whether it is because both parents are working, you are a single parent or you yourself never had someone teach you how to cook this is where we come in to help.
