My name is Nicole Dahl, I am a chef local to the Oakdale and surrounding areas. At Mountain Soul Yoga I strive to use local farm ingredients to create mindful dishes that are uniquely one of a kind and fuel your soul while bringing you balance and harmony during your stay.

At your yoga retreat you can expect plant based meals to keep in alignment with the yoga philosophy. Creating food with balance and textures that are appealing and utilizing the rainbow. Adding final flavorful touches that could include oils, vinegars and acid which bring brightness to each dish. I also love to incorporate fermented foods which is an essential part of one’s diet to keep the microbiomes in your gut healthy. Yoga and your gut health simply go hand in hand.

Some of the meals you could expect include organic based colorful buddha bowls, hearty soups and stews packed with immunity boosters, fruit and veggie smoothies, scratch made sauces and so much more. Meals will be light hearted so that your energy can be highly focused towards your yoga practice and not digesting. Food from the heart is my passion and I look forward to cooking for you and bringing sunshine to the table.
