Chef Jeff Weiss has cooked with James Beard award-winning chef José Andrés and Spanish-based chefs Daní Garcia and Adolfo Muñoz. He is one of a select few Americans to earn the prestigious ICEX culinary scholarship, which allowed him to live in Spain, learn the regional cuisines, and cook in the kitchens of top Spanish chefs. This made him the perfect collaborator on the omnivore recipes for Eat Like a Girl, and as a former competitive figure skater, he knows exactly how to fuel an active body.
