Let's face it, juggling a career and family is a lot of work! We all have the best intentions of feeding our family healthy home-cooked meals, but time is not our friend. Weekends should be spent having fun with our families, not waiting in line at the market. Do you want to stick to a new diet but don't know where to start?

Here enters The Frizzled Leek! We offer weekly and bi-weekly meal packages. The food is customized to your taste and dietary preferences. The Frizzled Leek prepares the meals in your home, packages and labels them, with re-heating instructions. When you come home from work, you have a spotless kitchen and a refrigerator stocked with deliciously prepared meals!

How it works

  • Phone Consultation - As a new client we will have a consultation about your needs and go over our meal plans and pricing.
  • Meal Planning - Every time you book with us you will receive a custom-tailored menu that supports your taste and dietary preference.
  • Grocery Shopping - Before arriving at your house we will take care of the grocery shopping. If you have a favorite local grocery store we are happy to shop there for you.
  • In-home cooking - We will spend 5 hours in your kitchen preparing your weekly meals and leave your kitchen spotless. When you arrive home you will have a refrigerator full of deliciously prepared meals ready to be re-heated.
  • Test it out - Give us a try! No commitment required. You have the option of doing weekly and bi-weekly bookings. You can stop and resume at any time.
  • Benefits - Gaining hours back to do other things you love, and not having the added stress of meal planning. If you are following a specific diet, we will take care of everything.

Pricing

  • Three Entrees, each served with an appropriate side dish (12 meals) - $300 plus the cost of groceries
  • Four Entrees, each served with an appropriate side dish (16 meals) - $325 plus the cost of groceries

Dinner Parties

Whatever your celebration or event is, let The Frizzled Leek accommodate. We offer in-home dinner parties for 2-20 people.

How It Works

  • Phone Consultation - We want to talk to you about the food, event, and all the little details. Then we will come up with a customized menu for your party.
  • Grocery Shopping - Before arriving at your house we take care of all the shopping.
  • Cooking - We do all of the cooking on-site and of course the clean-up.
