Description of Service Options & Pricing
I understand that the needs of my clients will be varied. I pride myself in the ability to be flexible, tailoring my services for you- my number one priority! Listed below are descriptions of the most popular service options currently offered to clients.
Are you wondering how my services compare to dining out costs? Click here!
THE FULL SERVICE
The Full Service option allows me to tailor a weekly menu to your dietary needs, specifications, and requests. I conduct a detailed assessment of your preferences, food allergies, etc. I create weekly and personalized menus, grocery shop at your favorite store(s), and package meals based on your specifications. Meals will be delivered to your home (at least twice weekly).
Following our initial consulation, if your family decides to utilize my services, a client agreement and weekly fee will be mutually decided upon. My fee is broken down into three categories: Labor, weekly groceries, and pantry costs. Use of all bulk items (spices, oils, flours, etc) are included in the pantry cost. Specific grocery budgets can be created with the client.
There is no delivery fee for the Full Service option.
THE 'BACHELOR' /
'JUST FOR TWO' SERVICES
The Bachelor and Just for Two options were created with the busy professional (or busy duo) in mind. Are you craving healthy and complete lunch and dinner meals but lack the time or energy? Do you love the robust flavors of homemade dishes but understand the high costs of maintaing a full pantry? These are the options for you, providing variety and simplicity!
The Bachelor option provides 10 individual meals weekly. The Just for Two option provides 20 individually packaged or 10 combined meals weekly. This provides ease for heating and transporting.
During the initial consultation, I will gather information based on your food preferences, allergies, etc. Your meals will then be created based on these specifications. A client agreement will also be created. A one-time $15 packaging fee will cover all food container costs. There is also a $5 delivery fee for delivery outside of New Circle Road.
Lunch & Dinner Mix* Price

20 $160
* A dinner-only option will cost an additonal $2 per meal due to the extra prep costs involved
THE À LA CARTE
DINNER SERVICE
The à la carte option is perfect for making life a little easier (and tastier)! Via email, I send out a weekly menu of scrumptious and interesting dinners for you to choose from. Meals are delivered twice weekly. Breakfast and lunch/snack options are also available.
There will be an up-charge for more exotic and/or expensive products. A $5 delivery fee will be assessed for meals delivered outside of New Circle Road. Clients have the option of providing approved containers or allow the chef to purchase them at a mutually agreed upon cost.
There is no client agreement for the Ã
la carte option.
