Chef-Made High Protein Meal Prep in Mission Viejo

Chefs building high protein menus target 25g or more per meal, and the exact macros are listed on every dish so you can check before ordering.

Yes. Message the chef through Prepared before the weekly cutoff and most will scale protein portions for you.

No. Chefs rotate between chicken, beef, pork, salmon, shrimp, eggs and plant proteins like tofu and lentils, so a high protein week doesn't collapse into the same bowl five times.

Sometimes, and it's a per-chef answer rather than a platform one. Chefs cook in independent home and commercial kitchens, not certified allergen-controlled facilities, so shared equipment and cross-contact are real possibilities and we won't tell you a dish is safe for a serious allergy or coeliac disease. Put the allergy, intolerance or ingredient you avoid in the request form above and a person will confirm with the chef what they can and can't commit to before you order.

Each chef sets their own prices and publishes them per dish, so you can see what a week costs before you commit to anything. Most single-serving meals land somewhere around $12 to $20 depending on the chef, the protein and the portion size, and there's no membership or subscription fee on top. You pay for the meals you order.

You pick a chef, choose meals from the menu they publish for that week, and order before their cutoff. They cook a day or two before delivery and bring it to you chilled, not frozen. Ordering and payment happen on the chef's own page on eatprepared.com. This site is where you find the right chef and tell us what you need.

Each chef cooks and delivers on their own weekly schedule. Most deliver Sundays, some Mondays, and each chef's day is listed on their card above. Meals arrive chilled and freshly cooked, ready to reheat, rather than frozen in bulk and shipped from a warehouse.

Ask anyway. Chefs cook every week to order, so a diet nobody has put on a menu is still one you can request. Tell us what you need in the form above and we confirm directly with a chef what they can cook before you commit to anything. That request is also how a diet ends up on menus here in the first place.

There's no membership or subscription fee. You pay for the meals you order. Individual chefs may set their own order minimums, which you'll see on their page before you check out.

Up to that chef's weekly cutoff, yes. Message them through Prepared and they'll adjust it. After the cutoff they've usually already shopped and started prepping, so changes get harder.
