Do you offer vegetarian/vegan options?
Yes! Personalized meal prep and catering can be 100% vegetarian or vegan.
Are your meals safe for celiacs?
All meals do not contain any gluten and the kitchen has a gluten free prep area, however the kitchen itself isn’t 100% gluten free. I recommend the in-home meal prep service for anyone with major allergies.
How are meals packaged?
I try to use as little plastic (especially single use plastic) as possible. Meals are either packaged in your containers or I can provide glass containers with a $50-$100 refundable container deposit.
Do you offer info on calories or macros for meals?
I strongly believe in listening to your own body’s wisdom and do not want to encourage diet culture so I do not offer information on calories or macros.
Do you offer breakfast, dessert or snack options?
You bet! Personal chef services can go beyond just dinners and lunches. Whatever you’re needing, I can make happen.
Do I have to be home to accept delivery?
To ensure food safety, it is strongly recommended that you are home to receive meals and put them right in the fridge as meals can’t be left out for more than 2 hours. If you aren’t home and are comfortable with it, I’m happy to pop them in the fridge for you with a door code or key.
Do I have to be home for in-home meal services?
Nope! Just leave me a key or door code and I can let myself in to get cooking. You’re more than welcome to be home, but due to safety concerns, I ask that you allow me space to work while I’m in the kitchen.
How many meals can I get each week?
There’s really no limit for personalized meal prep clients. There is a $300 order minimum for personalized meal prep clients.
How much does personalized meal prep cost?
It completely depends on how much food you’d like each week! This service starts at $300 which includes 6 individual meals total and includes the cost of groceries. I also offer “grocery tiers” to help stay within your food budget.
Can you accommodate multiple food allergies/preferences in a household?
You bet! If you’re a family that has a variety of needs and preferences, I can create meals to suite each individual.
How do I store and reheat my meals?
For personalized meal prep clients, I will send you an email with storage and reheating instructions for each meal.
