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.

  • Food that reheats in minutes and eats one-handed — soups, braises, stews and rice bowls rather than anything needing assembly.
  • Chefs cook to order weekly, so what you ask for can change as your appetite does.
  • Meals arrive chilled and portioned, so there is always something ready without anyone cooking.
  • Every dish publishes its nutrition, for a stretch when nobody has the energy to work it out.

The weeks after a baby arrives are the clearest case there is for someone else doing the cooking. Appetite is unpredictable, sleep is worse, and the food that actually helps is warm, substantial and available at three in the morning without any assembly.

Chefs on Prepared cook to order each week, which matters more here than on most pages, because postpartum appetites are specific and they change. Soups, braises, stews, rice bowls and roasted vegetables reheat well and eat easily with one hand. Telling a chef you want everything mild this week, or nothing with onion in it, is an ordinary request to a kitchen working from scratch.

This is a meal service rather than care. We make no claims about recovery or feeding, and nothing here is medical or dietetic advice — if you have restrictions from a midwife or doctor, put them in the form and we confirm with the chef first.

Postpartum meal prep in Coachella: common questions

How much food should I order?
Most people start with five to ten meals for a week and adjust from there. Chefs price per dish, so you can scale up or down each week rather than committing to a plan.
Can chefs work around foods I'm avoiding?
Yes, and that is the normal case here rather than a special one. Tell us what you're avoiding in the request form and we confirm with the chef what they can commit to before you order.
Is the food suitable while breastfeeding?
We don't make claims about feeding or supply — that is a question for your midwife, doctor or a lactation consultant. What we can do is cook around anything you have been told to avoid, once you tell us what it is.
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.
