Contact me to discuss your needs.
Q: Your services cost roughly the same as an entrée in a restaurant… why is that?
The price per meal is comparable to what you might pay at a restaurant. However, no restaurant can match the personalized service, customized menus or convenience I can offer.
​
My fee includes an assessment, a personalized menu based on the assessment, grocery shopping, preparation of each meal, packaging and labeling of all meals, and heating instructions.
​
Each meal is customized based on your dietary needs and wants and you get to enjoy your meal in the comfort of your own home.
Q: Do you use local and organic ingredients?
I source the highest quality ingredients, which tend to be mostly organic and sometimes local depending on availability.
Q: What kind of containers do you use?
It is recommended that you use glass containers. You can use your own containers or I can provide them for a one-time fee.
Q: How are my menus created?
Menus are designed several days ahead of the cook date based on an earlier inventory of food likes and dislikes and e-mailed to you for approval. Approval should be confirmed 2 days in advance in case any changes need to be made.
Q: Are the meals fully cooked?
Meals are generally fully cooked with the exception of some proteins, which need to be cooked more later. Partially cooking proteins helps prevent overcooking.
Q: Can I change the service to accommodate
my needs?
The service is completely flexible and can be changed at any time to best meet your needs.
Q: How does payment work?
Payment is requested via e-transfer once meals are prepared.
