Tailored Meal Prep
Below we explain how we customise your Meals experience to your needs and dietary requirements
A key advantage of Meals, as a personal chef meal prep service, over every other meal prep company is the ability to tailor your service to you.
Whilst we offer 100s of meal options and are meticulous in the development of each of them to make sure all dishes meet the standard our customers expect from our service, most of these meals also have the ability to be tailored to an individual Meals member. That may be something as simple as portion size or it may be that you have specific dietary needs that need accommodating such as being gluten or diary free.
At Meals we can do this because, unlike all other meal prep services, we aren’t mass producing our meals but are dedicating a chef to you who is individually preparing each of your meals and hand placing them in your fridge. As such, we can customise the meals to the individual needs of each Meals members.
How to Tailor Your Meals Experience to You
Once you’ve signed up to Meals you can immediately begin browsing our dishes and you’ll see a selection of around 40 highlighted dishes.
These dish highlights can be customised to you based on your preferences, any plans you are signed up to and your dietary requirements.
The default options available on your portal are a selection of our most popular meals and can be ordered in 3 portion sizes. These dishes are designed for our average customer and will accommodate the needs of over 80% of our members.
You can also scroll past these options and use the search tool to access 100s of other dishes from our dish library.
For most members, our standard range of dishes will work very well but if you have specific dietary or performance needs then we’d be delighted to reviews these and tailor our dishes around them.
If you require this then you can get started customising your meals experience to you by going to the ‘Your Dietary Requirements’ section of your Meals portal and pressing ‘Describe Your Requirements’. Then just give a detailed overview of your needs and click ‘Submit’.
This will be sent to our food team who will review your requirements to confirm how we can tailor your meals service to you.
You can also use the ‘Add’ button to manually input any allergies and dietary preferences that you have here, but please note that this will filter and limit the meal options you’ll see until our food team have been able to customise the portal around your needs.
Premium Plans & Working with a Dietician
In the rare situation where you have very complex dietary needs that can’t be accommodated or you are looking for a plan to be created for you based around a goal or lifestyle change then our advice would be to speak to a dietician before starting our service.
Meals can refer you to a dietician that can create you a meal plan based around your needs and you can then give this to our food team and they can begin processing this plan and creating a range of unique dishes just for you.
This process does require a significant time investment from our food team and depending on your requirements you will pay a fee for this plan to be managed for you which starts from £10 per week.
However, what it means is that whether you are suffering from a severe health issue or are a professional sports person, you can have an expert in your field creating you a individualised dishes based around your needs and these can then be brought alive for you through Meals.
