The Personal Chef Service is where I make food as medicine to come through! As a nutritionist, foodie, and cook, the way I express my art is by crafting nourishing and delicious foods that feed the body and soul.
CUSTOMIZED MEAL PREP
Seeing the value time has these days in our lives, I understand that even though we know that eating healthy is key for our well-being, researching recipes, shopping for good ingredients, cooking, and cleaning might not fit into our schedule all the time.
Therefore, I expanded my purpose in providing nourishment and developed my personal chef service, which has become one of the most powerful tools I have to help people make healthy eating become part of their lifestyle.
In addition to the commodity, this service enables people to develop solid healthy eating habits from nutrient-dense meals, which results in experiencing that great feeling of healthiness, wellness, and balance.

THE PERSONAL CHEF SERVICE INCLUDES:
HOW IT WORKS:
Designing your Menu: I start with a consultation (online, by phone, or in person) where we will discuss your food preferences, nutritional concerns, and your routine. Based on your responses, I create a customized menu varying from my personal recipes to your own preferences and nutritional needs. Results from our consultation will help me to tailor a menu to your likes and dislikes, as well as accommodate dietary restrictions and other special requests. I work with every client to fit any size family and eating style. The final menu will be adjusted according to your needs and preferences and confirmed 48 hours before the cooking day
Kitchen Location: Onsite or off-service service available:
Off-site + Delivery: Service is performed in my home-commercial kitchen and the food is delivered to the client’s house. I leave the food either at your doors or I can come in and accommodate everything in the fridge. Offsite service works best for those who appreciate their privacy, work from home, or simply like the idea of having their personalized food brought to their home.
Onsite: Service is done in the client’s kitchen followed by a clean-up. Food will be stored in the fridge to be enjoyed on the following days. The onsite service works great for those who enjoy someone cooking in their kitchen and optimizing the usage of foods or ingredients they might have already available at home.
Meal Prepping: On a cooking day, I will shop for the ingredients in different grocery stores, always prioritizing freshness, quality, and seasonality. I bring them to the place where I will be cooking, sanitize/wash them to prevent any contamination, and prepare, and cook the meals the client has chosen.
My pantry: I also use some of my personal pantry ingredients (at no cost), which include miscellaneous items such as key baking goods, healthy oils, spices that I collect from places I visit, and fresh seasonal vegetables, fruit, and herbs from my home garden.
Meals are packaged and stored in the fridge afterward, so they are ready to be enjoyed! I bring all cooking equipment and my travel my pantry with spices, some key healthy ingredients, and fresh herbs and greens from my garden. At the end of each session, I will leave a personal chef service report with the recipes, grocery shopping receipts, and the total cost of the service.
Packaging: Food will be stored in BPA-free containers in either individual portions or “family style”. The meals can be packaged individually for portion control; can be packaged as family style or a combination of both.
Delivery: Offsite service includes free-delivery at your doors
Investment: The personal chef service investment includes an hourly rate plus the cost of groceries and varies based on household size, the number of recipes prepared, and the frequency of service (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or single session).
