My boyfriend has a specialized diet during the week.

For Christmas, I thought it would be nice to hire a personal chef for a bit to take care of his cooking for him. I came across MJER Help and I'm so happy I did! Besides catering, they actually specialize in meal prep and take care of everything from the grocery shopping, to preparation to portioning. They come to your home to take care of the cooking so you don't have to worry about delivery or picking the meals up--which was the case with some of the other chefs I looked at. After a quick call with Michelle so she could understand what I was looking for and to chat pricing (flat hourly fee plus the cost of groceries), the awesome Kathy was sent our way every Tuesday to cook 10 meals a week. Kathy worked with my boyfriend to find recipes that he was excited to eat and she whipped them up using both our own kitchenware and some more specialized tools she brought with her. She would provide clear portions and pairings so he would know what goes with what. Kathy helped him get out of the rut he was in when he was cooking for himself and he loved everything she cooked for him! MJER Help was affordable (as far as personal chefs go), super easy to work with and Kathy went the extra mile to make sure my boyfriend was eating delicious meals that kept with his Keto diet!

Let me tell you... I'm only half way into my Lean Box Meals by Chef and already, my taste buds have…read morehad quite the flavor party. LeanBox Mediterranean Quinoa: HOLY. FLAVOR. EXPLOSION. And that Tzatziki? Out of this worldddddd. Super fresh, light, airy (it just is) quinoa perfectly done, well seasoned with the cucumber, hummus, spicy feta . PLENTY of chicken, enough for just about every bite. If you enjoy that Mediterranean flare you'll definitely want to add this to your delivery! The perfect light summer meal! Pretty sure I dreamt about this sauce though. LeanBox Carne Asada: yall... that grilled flank steak.. with the avocado salsa... but then theres an amazing - least expected for me! - addition of refried lentils, GRILLED veggies.. just stop! I tried the steak cold and hot, and which ever way one pleases to stuff your face, the flavor doesn't disappear nor disappoint. Next up: LeanBox Cowboy Butter Steak Bites. LeanBox Raspberry Chipotle Chicken. LeanBox Salmon Acapulco. STAY TUNED! Ordering is a BREEZE, communication is perfection, delivery service is such a luxury, and appreciated. I had messaged Chef prior to ordering, letting him know my protein needs and what if anything he would recommend. He mentioned that the Lean Box meals and when I committ, I committ. Snagged all five of his lean meals for the week I ordered (his menu changes, so be sure to follow if you're interested)... GET THE BAG.

I've…read morebeen looking for a meal delivery service for years and years and have tried them all over that timespan and never found out that stuck. I'm so thankful to have finally given Mealbox a try after hearing about it a few years back. I never ended up trying it because it wasn't customizable at the time for the packs and I don't eat any seafood but now they have added the ability to subscribe and choose your meals every week. As soon as I tried my first meal I immediately was on the website ordering next weeks meals. I was super impressed with the quality and taste. No other meal delivery plan even comes close to these. I love the variety of the menu changing every week and giving me the opportunity to try new things and find my favorites. There will always be things I don't like as much as others but the stuff I've liked I've LOVED! I see myself continuing to subscribe to Mealbox which has made it super convenient for me and supports local business. They also offer Family Packs if you do have a big family for easy yummy meals and delivery is free with weekly delivery! So impressed with this company and hope they continue to succeed and get more business. They deserve it! Chef will really knows how to cook! Some of the best tasting meals I've ever had! A must try! I look forward to this every week now! Thank you.

The menu rotates each month--ours was the Hawaiian-themed Hula Around the Block--and the food was excellent overall. The Huli Huli Chicken was the clear standout. The North Shore Garlic Shrimp Plate was solid, and the Asian Cucumber Salad was a nice side. The Spicy Salmon Poke Bowl was good, though I would have preferred the salmon raw and a bit more heat. The atmosphere is very casual and self-service. Chef/owner Dan is a genuinely nice guy and a great chef. If you like rotating themed menus in a relaxed pop-up setting, this is worth checking out. We'll be back.
