  • 20/20 Lifestyles Hires Dedicated Chef

    A nutritious healthy diet is an integral component of any comprehensive weight loss program and key to maintaining long term success.  With that in mind, 20/20 recently partnered with the PRO Sports Club Bistro to create a position devoted to developing new 20/20 approved cuisine. 

    Beginning earlier this year, Andrea Peterson embarked on her new role as dedicated 20/20 Lifestyles Chef.  Andrea, along with a dedicated team will be responsible for designing and executing the 20/20 Cuisine on the Go menu as well as weekly 20/20 Bistro specials. 

    For the last three years Andrea worked in the Bistro as a line cook and Sous Chef.  She has a passion for exercise, nutritious cooking and overall healthy living.  The combination of her culinary skills and commitment to a healthy lifestyle was the ideal recipe for this new role.    

    In concert with the Cuisine on the Go team and Bistro line cooks, Andrea is excited to share her passion for delicious healthy food and exorcise the myth that nutritious food must taste like cardboard.  "I'm thrilled at the opportunity to develop original and delicious creations for Cuisine on the Go, and help clients achieve their program goals through healthy eating."
