Personal Chef Services

Personal Cooking

Enjoy delicious, healthy meals in the comfort of your own home with Fiddlehead Foods. To get started, give us a call and we’ll arrange for a free consultation to discuss your likes, dislikes, and dietary goals. We’ll come back to you with a suggested menu based on your food preferences.

Next, we get shopping. We visit local farmer’s markets and high quality stores like Whole Foods and the Willy Street Co-op to find the freshest produce available. In your home, meals are cooked, safely cooled, and packaged. Your kitchen is cleaned, leaving behind only delicious meals to reheat at your convenience.

Pantry Makeovers

Your pantry is the foundation of a healthy diet. Having high quality, wholesome foods on hand is key to making smart food choices throughout the week. Together, we will inventory your pantry and fridge and discuss what should go and what health-supportive foods should come in. Based on your food preferences, we will help you create a personalized “pantry basics list” so you will always have the foundation for making quick and satisfying meals.

As part of this service, we can also prepare healthy homemade additions to your pantry, including granola, salad dressings, hummus, dips, and crackers to help you and your family get through the week worry free. 

We will provide easy to follow recipes along with nutrition information for all new pantry items. Local and seasonal shopping strategies can be discussed if desired.
