Chef-Made
Low FODMAP Meal Prep
in Arcadia

Low FODMAP meal prep for people managing IBS and related gut symptoms — food without the fermentable carbohydrates that commonly trigger them, which in practice means cooking without onion, garlic, wheat and a long list of quieter culprits. That's hard to eat out and tedious to cook; a chef who understands the list changes that. Chefs price per dish, and most meals land around $12 to $20 each.

About these kitchens

Chefs on Prepared cook in independent home and commercial kitchens, not certified allergen-controlled facilities, so shared equipment and cross-contact are real possibilities. We won't tell you a dish is safe for a serious allergy or coeliac disease. If you have an allergy, an intolerance or another medical restriction, say so in your request and a person will confirm with the chef what they can and can't commit to before you order anything.

By sending this you agree we can text you about your request. We don't sell your number or use it for marketing, and you can reply STOP any time.

  • Cooked without onion, garlic, wheat and the other high-FODMAP triggers — flavour built with infused oils, ginger and citrus instead.
  • Every ingredient can be confirmed with the chef dish by dish, which is the whole battle on this protocol.
  • Works phase by phase: give the chef the exact list your dietitian set, and widen it as you reintroduce.
  • A dietitian-led protocol — Prepared cooks to your list, your care team owns the plan.

The low FODMAP diet — developed by researchers at Monash University for managing IBS — removes fermentable carbohydrates that trigger bloating, pain and worse in sensitive guts. It is notoriously miserable to sustain, because the trigger list runs through the backbone of normal cooking: onion and garlic are in nearly everything, wheat is everywhere, and 'a little sauce' is usually where the day goes wrong.

That's why chef-cooked low FODMAP is genuinely different from a filter on a menu. A chef cooking your week to order can build flavour the low FODMAP way — garlic-infused oil instead of garlic, the green tops of spring onions, ginger, lemongrass, citrus, maple instead of honey — and can answer for every ingredient in every container, which no frozen national service can honestly do.

Because the protocol is dietitian-led and phase-dependent, we don't pretend a page can prescribe it. Bring the list your dietitian gave you — elimination, reintroduction or maintenance — put it in the request, and we'll match you with a chef who cooks to it. Macros are published on every dish, and the chef is a message away when an ingredient needs checking.

Low FODMAP meal prep in Arcadia: common questions

What actually gets left out?
The big ones are onion, garlic, wheat, most legumes, certain fruits like apples and mango, honey, and lactose-heavy dairy. Chefs cooking to a low FODMAP brief build flavour with things like garlic-infused oil, chives, ginger and citrus instead.
Is this suitable for the elimination phase?
It can be, but the elimination phase is strict and individual — run it with your dietitian, and give the chef the exact list you're working from. For the reintroduction and maintenance phases, tell the chef which groups you've cleared and the menu widens accordingly.
Is this medical advice?
No. Low FODMAP is a dietitian-led protocol, usually for IBS, and your care team owns the plan. What Prepared offers is a chef who can cook to the list you've been given — with ingredients confirmed dish by dish, not assumed.
Can chefs handle allergies?
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.
How much does it cost?
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.
How does ordering actually work?
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.
When do meals arrive, and are they frozen?
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.
What if no chef has published the menu I want?
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.
Is there a subscription or minimum?
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.
Can I change or cancel an order?
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.
