FAQs

How it works.

It all starts with an initial meeting where we discuss expectations, food preferences, needs, and scheduling. Then we get around to the meal planning. I regularly update a compiled recipe “menu” of favorites - but I also welcome your own personal go-tos. Meals are most often decided a few days before - with a grocery list compiled that is sent your way. Some clients prefer this and they can easily enter the list into a delivery service - or I manage the groceries.

For Weekly Basics - the focus is more on organized meal components. What this aims to do is make meal assembly throughout the week uncomplicated. I personally back a “Grain/Carb/Protein/Condiment” prep for myself and find that putting together dinner or lunch is quick, simple, and satisfying. Having prepared produce (washed/stored) and an organized food space invites you in to make and create meals that encourage your health and wellbeing.

With all that said, prep days are meant to go pretty much unnoticeable. You are free to go about your day however that works best :)

Kitchen Basics.

Cooking doesn’t need to be complicated and I can proudly say that I once cooked for multiple months with just an instant pot and hot plate. Going over what your kitchen provides in terms of applicanes and such is standard. I do always pack personal items and things that I don’t expect clients to have. All in all I tend to make things work pretty well with whatever your space presents.

Prepping the prep.

All meals or prepared foods are labeled and dated for storing. If there is a particular reheating method that needs to be followed - I always leave a note with instructions. For meals with multiple items I will number them for easy assembly.
