In-home service
Home Meal Prep
More personalized than a meal kit. More accessible than a private chef. I come to your kitchen, cook for your week, and leave everything clean.
The sweet spot in personal chef services
Home Meal Prep sits right in the middle of what I offer — and for most clients, it's exactly what they need. You get a fully customized menu built around your dietary preferences, household size, and weekly goals. Unlike a basic meal-prep service, every dish is made fresh in your home with ingredients chosen for you. And unlike a full private chef experience, it's priced to fit a real budget without locking you into a long-term contract.
Think of it as having a personal chef for the week — without the full-time price tag. I handle the planning, the cooking, and the cleanup. You open your fridge to a week of ready-to-eat meals.

What's included — and what to expect
Groceries
By default, clients provide their own groceries or reimburse me at cost. I'll send a detailed shopping list in advance so everything is ready when I arrive. Prefer I handle the shopping? Add it on for a flat $25 fee plus the cost of groceries.
Kitchen cleanup
I leave your kitchen exactly as I found it — or better. All cookware, prep surfaces, and appliances are cleaned before I go. Containers are labeled with meal names and dates. You just open the fridge.
Menu planning
Every session starts with a customized menu based on your preferences, dietary needs, and portion goals. I'll confirm the plan with you before shopping so there are no surprises.
Scheduling
Sessions are typically booked weekly or bi-weekly. You can reschedule up to 24 hours in advance at no charge.
