Chef's Note: This isn't diet food, and it isn't bland meal prep. It's the kind of food you'd cook if you had the time—fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and meals you'll actually look forward to eating. Everything is prepared fresh, portions are generous, and every dish is designed to taste just as good when you reheat it as it did the day it was made. This is the paragraph that I have for my casual weekly meals. I would like to add pricing to this as well.

Pricing is going to be $100 an hour within minimum of four hours plus the cost of groceries. Total cook time is different for each. Client and will be discussed upon the free consultation. Travel fee fees may apply to areas outside of Scottsdale/Phoenix

Meals are prepared and packaged family-style, giving you the flexibility to build each plate exactly the way you like. Proteins, grains, and vegetables are prepared separately, making it easy to mix and match meals throughout the week, adjust portion sizes, and accommodate different appetites or dietary goals within the household.

To keep your meals as fresh as possible and reduce unnecessary waste, we ask that clients provide their own clean, airtight containers before each cook day. Your meals will be portioned, labeled, and organized in your refrigerator, making breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks ready whenever you need them.

Package Examples

• 4 Meals | 4 Servings Each (16 Total Portions) Includes 4 meals and 4 servings plus appropriate side dishes. Prepped family-style. Best for couples or small families covering most of the workweek.

• 5 Meals | 4 Servings Each (20 Total Portions) Includes 5 meals and 4 servings plus appropriate side dishes. Prepped family-style. Best for full Monday-through-Friday meal coverage.

Please note that serving sizes can always be adjusted and will vary depending upon your specific request or needs and time will adjust accordingly.

Service Time

A typical in-home cooking session takes between 3 to 5 hours. Because multiple items are cooked at the same time, adding more meals only slightly increases the prep work, not the total time spent in your home.

The standard schedule breaks down as follows:

Grocery Shopping: Roughly 1 hour, completed before arrival (No charge to the client)

• Setup: 15 minutes

• Prep Work: 45 minutes to 1 hour

• Cooking: 2 to 3 hours

• Packaging & Kitchen Cleanup: 45 minutes to 1 hour

Chef Recommendations for Freshness

3 to 4 Day Limit: It is highly recommended to schedule meal coverage for only 3 to 4 days at a time. This ensures your food remains at peak freshness and stays within optimal food safety guidelines.

Chef Prefers No Freezing: It is recommended not to freeze these meals. Frozen meals frequently get forgotten, clutter your freezer space, and ultimately end up discarded. Eating the food fresh yields the best taste and quality.
