Introduction
I began preparing vegan and vegetarian food professionally in 2004, and since 2014 I have provided onsite, full service vegan and vegetarian catering for large scale, multi day events in southern California, Lenox, Massachusetts, Sedona and Cochise County, Arizona. I still cater meditation retreats in the spring and fall in Arizona, but I'm available for smaller scale plant based catering and vegan meal prep in the St Louis area during the summer and winter. My truly scratch kitchen showcases flavors from the Mediterranean, the Middle East, India, Southeast Asia, the Pacific Rim and South America. I have a huge repertoire of tried and true vegan and vegetarian recipes and am open to new ideas as well. I can fill your fridge with delicious healthy food to make it easy for you to reach your plant based nutrition goals.

Katie at Balsamic Mercy Catering is more than a fantastic chef; she’s also extraordinary human being. Yes, the food is delicious, incredibly healthy and prepared with great care. Having worked with Katie for years, she’s become part of our family…thoughtful, compassionate, open hearted. In short, Katie is a treasure!! Greg Z

Fresh, live, vibrant food, so lovingly prepared, and beautifully served. Food as art, as spirit, as nurturing body, mind and soul. Delicious flavors from all over the world, and the amazing ability to take care of special dietary needs in the midst of a large group with attention to detail and personal caring. Amazing falls short of describing working with Katie. Her personal passion for being of service in this way in the world can be tasted in every bite, and experienced in all the details. We have worked with her catering our 5 to 10 day workshops several times a year for many years. Our staff and participants are so well cared for, it adds a fantastic dimension to what we do. TEN stars! Jan K. Nine Gates Programs.org

Katie and her team are personable, attentive, and flexible. They are willing to accommodate some of the most complex needs while still maintaining high quality foods. I love that Katie and her team seem to intuitively know what we need even before asking. Truly a gem! Thank you!

The training of Nine Gates Programs is spiritual in nature and integrative in action -- body, mind and spirit. Katie possesses a holistic understanding of the importance of nourishing the body to healing the spirit and energy field of an individual. For over 10 years, Katie and her Balsamic Mercy staff have taken care of our participants. Fresh, healthy food that tastes as exquisite as its presentation is not the exception, but the norm. Over the years, food allergies and special diet requests have significantly increased. Katie lovingly handles every special request we've ever brought to her; never once leaving the individual feeling anything but cared for and very special themselves! We know that when we are being fed by Katie, we are in exceptionally good hands... and heart! Deborah Jones Executive Director Nine Gates Programs, Inc.
