Proof That Dinner Really Can Feel This Easy:

 "Before Erica, dinner was the most stressful part of my day. We’d waste groceries, order too much takeout, and I always felt guilty that my kids weren’t eating well.

Since starting the weekly delivery, all of that changed. Three nights a week I just open the fridge and there are beautiful, nourishing meals ready for us. The kids are trying new things, and I feel so much calmer at the table. It’s not just food, it’s peace of mind. Worth every penny."

-Amanda O

 "I’ve worked with other private chefs, but none of them took my allergies and preferences seriously. I felt like I had to micromanage every detail, and I still didn’t trust what was on my plate.

Erica changed that. Every meal is perfectly tailored, with zero mistakes, and I never feel bored or restricted. I don’t think about food anymore—it’s just handled, with total precision and variety."

-Jon F

 "When we brought our baby home, cooking felt impossible. We were living off frozen meals and takeout, which left us feeling exhausted and guilty. 

A friend gifted us Erica’s one-time meal delivery, and it was a lifeline. Having meals waiting for us in the fridge and freezer made those first weeks so much easier."

- Simmons Family

Designed With Your Life in Mind:

  • A Two-Week Introduction: Your first two weeks serve as a natural introduction to the service. If everything aligns beautifully, you’ll continue with the seasonal plan. If not, you’re welcome to step away before week three. My goal is always ease, clarity, and an effortless fit.
     
  • Pause & Flexibility:  Life happens — travel, busy weeks, shifting schedules. Each client receives two complimentary pauses per season. Simply use the Pause option on your schedule (or send a quick note) at least one week in advance, and your service will pause seamlessly until the following week.
     
  • Clear Expectation: Weekly menus are set in advance, ensuring you always know what to expect — no decisions, no waste, just exceptional meals delivered consistently.


  • Wholesome Ingredients: All meals are prepared with organic produce and high-quality proteins. No seed oils, no added refined sugar. 

Personal & Flexible by Design

I work with a select number of households each season. If your application feels aligned, we’ll schedule a brief call to confirm fit.

New clients begin with a two-week onboarding period. If the service isn’t the right match, you may withdraw prior to week three—no pressure and no obligations.
