How much does this cost?
Complete meals available when you need them, for about what you would spend at a restaurant. Services include meal planning and preparation, special events and dinner parties.
Meal Prep
You are paying for my time, plus the cost of groceries. The final cost of meals will very much be dependent upon what I cook for you. My rate is $200 for a full 8 hour day or $125 for a half day (this includes shopping and cooking time). In a typical day, I can prepare up to 5 complete meals serving 4 people each. Depending upon what your family/schedule needs, this could be a combination of grab and go healthy breakfast, easily portable lunch option and 3 separate complete dinners.
If you have time/interest/ability, I can prep more meals for you to complete on your own. Similar to Blue Apron or similar service, but without having to peel, chop or marinate ingredients – just pull from the refrigerator/freezer and finish using the detailed instructions provided. I will work with you to design menus that fit your lifestyle and schedule. In this shared cooking arrangement, I can maximize my cooking time at your house and leave you with a stocked refrigerator and freezer of meals ready to be finished off with minimal active time on your part. (For instance, meats frozen in marinade that you pull from the freezer to thaw the night before and cook when you’re ready. Complete side dishes/vegetable options to compliment main protein ready to heat and eat. Sauces ready to heat and pair with pasta.)
Souper Supper Special
Get a group of friends together to share the food and split the cost! 3 large batches of soup for $100, plus the cost of groceries. Most soups freeze well for long-term storage in small containers for ease of thawing/heating.
Dinner Parties and Events
Available for group dinners and parties in your home, from fully cooking and serving (and cleaning up) to preparing all the food in advance for you to heat and serve at the appropriate time. Let me help you look amazing!
Pricing for dinner parties is contingent upon the menu and staffing needs. I have a network of reliable cooks and servers to assist for larger events.
