Keto Meal Prep
in Santa Monica
Ketogenic meal prep means keeping carbohydrates low enough to stay in ketosis — generally under about 20g of net carbs a day. Because every dish on Prepared lists its carb, fat and protein counts, you can build a week that fits your own threshold rather than trusting a label.

- Every dish lists its carb count, so you can hold a 20g-a-day ceiling without weighing food yourself.
- Starchy sides are replaced with above-ground vegetables rather than simply left off the container.
- Fat is cooked in on purpose, so meals stay satiating instead of being plain grilled protein.
- Give a chef your daily carb target in the request form and they'll build the week around it.
Keto meal prep means eating so that carbohydrate stays low enough for your body to run mostly on fat — for most people somewhere under 20 to 30 grams of net carbs a day, with fat doing the heavy lifting and protein held steady. The idea is simple; the execution is where it goes wrong. Sauces, marinades, thickeners, glazes and starchy sides are how carbs get into food that looks perfectly ketogenic on the plate.
A week from a Prepared chef looks like braised and roasted meats, fish, eggs, cheese and cream used deliberately, and vegetables that grow above ground — cauliflower, courgette, greens, peppers — in place of rice, pasta and potato. Chefs cook it fresh in their own kitchens each week, so the flavour comes from the cooking rather than from sugar in a sauce.
Every dish publishes its carbohydrate, fat and protein counts. That is what makes a chef marketplace workable for keto: you hold your own ceiling by reading numbers, not by trusting the word 'keto' on a label. Portions can be adjusted if you ask before the weekly cutoff.

Keto meal prep in Santa Monica — common questions
- How do I know a meal is keto-friendly?
- Check the carb count listed on the dish. Chefs cooking to a keto brief keep net carbs low per meal, but the published macros are the thing to verify.
- Can a chef cook a full keto week for me?
- That's what the request form is for. Tell us your daily carb target and we'll match you with a chef who cooks to it.
- Are the carb counts total or net?
- Dishes list carbohydrate and fibre, so you can work out net carbs either way. If a specific dish is ambiguous, ask the chef before the week is cooked rather than after.
