How do I reheat my meals?

Meal Heating Instructions

For meals that we recommend heating, roasting in a skillet is the preferred method:

Place contents of meal in skillet, turn burner to medium heat, stirring as necessary until desired warmth is achieved.

For those on the go, our containers are microwave friendly:

Remove lid, microwave on high in 45 second intervals, stirring as necessary, until desired warmth is achieved.

When will meals be available for pick-up at my selected location?

 

If you order a 5-day meal package, the first three days of your package will be available for pickup on Monday morning. The remaining two days of your package will be available for pickup on Thursday morning.  To ensure freshness, we prepare meals twice per week!

3-day meal packages will be available for pickup on Monday morning.

2-day meal packages will be available for pickup on Thursday morning.  

What's the nutritional makeup of your meals?

We portion our meals according to The Zone Diet. It’s a basic formula for portioning macronutrients (proteins, carbohydrates, and fats). Each meal is roughly the equivalent of four blocks: 40% Carbohydrate, 30% Protein, 30% Fat.

For Example, one Standard meal will contain:

3 oz. Protein (i.e. Chicken)
7 oz. Carbohydrate (i.e. Broccoli)
2-3 Tablespoon Fat (i.e. Salad Dressing)

For Example, one XL meal will contain:

5 oz. Protein (i.e. Chicken)
9 oz. Carbohydrate (i.e. Broccoli)
3-4 Tablespoon Fat (i.e. Salad Dressing)

Are your containers recyclable?

The containers we use are #5 plastic.  Check with your local recycling company to see if they will pick-up #5 curbside. We are currently working with Preserve Products and their Gimme 5 program to develop a recycling system...stay tuned!

Where do you source your protein and produce from?

We currently source VDL Grassfed beef out of Northern Wisconsin 

We're proud to work with Swanson's Meats, a locally operated and family owned business, to source our protein.  Our selections are always 100% hormone and antibiotic-free.  Additionally, we try to source organic whenever cost allows.

We're proud to work with Bix Produce, a locally owned and operated business, to source our produce.  Our selections are always non-GMO and organic where possible.

Can you accommodate food allergies and special requests?

Yes.  You'll find a "Food Allergies and Preferences" form as you complete the ordering process.  If you have specific food allergies or sensitivities or have strong food dislikes, we'll ensure you don't receive these ingredients.

Note that we may substitute a different meal in place of modifying ingredients within a dish.
