What do meal preparation & planning services include?

Having someone to plan and prepare your meals is an easy way to enjoy balanced, delicious meals while hitting your fitness goals at the same time! You can enjoy the convenience of having every meal customised according to your preferences and dietary needs. Here’s what you can expect from meal planning and preparation services near you:

Meal planning

Running out of meal ideas? Let a Tasker plan your meals and save you time and stress! They can personalise meal plans according to your dietary needs, restrictions, allergies, and aversions. You can have ready meals for a day, a week, or a month, but you can always have it adjusted whenever you want. From vegan and gluten-free to weight loss plans, your Tasker can prep your meals and keep you satisfied! For the health-conscious, hiring someone to give nutritional advice can be an added benefit, so you know which diet is the best for you. You can also get a personal trainer to help you lose fat, gain muscles, and reshape your body!

Meal preparation

For those who don’t have the time or energy to cook their own food, you can let your Tasker do it for you! They can prepare ahead meals based on the meal plan both of you have agreed upon. Your Tasker cooks your pre-prepared meals in either their kitchen or your own, and the meals should last depending on your agreed time frame. To make it even easier for you, you can get someone to shop for your groceries, so you can tick off items on your shopping list without having to step out of your house! Feel free to have fresh meat, veggies, and fruits delivered if you want to have your meal made with fresh ingredients.

Meal delivery

If your breakfast and lunch are cooked and prepared in your Tasker’s kitchen, you can have your meals delivered to your door. Your ready prepared meals are sent to you in freezer bags or oven-safe boxes, all set for reheating any time. Make sure to store them properly in your refrigerator or freezer to avoid getting them spoiled! If you need healthy meals delivered right away, a Tasker can also bring you healthy takeaway from your go-to restaurant so you can enjoy freshly-cooked food while sticking to your diet.

Richmond VIC 3121, Australia

20th Jan 2026

I’m looking for someone with a fitness or nutrition background who can come to my place and help with meal prep, but also explain what they’re doing as we go. I don’t just want meals cooked. I want to learn how to do this properly so I can build a system that works long term. I train regularly with strength training, eat larger portions than average and my goal is body recomposition, building muscle while staying lean. Discipline isn’t my issue. Time and efficiency are. Meal prep is taking me far too long and I want to do it smarter. Ideally, you’d come to my place and cook meals with me or cook while I watch and learn. I want help with batch cooking, portioning, keeping meals filling and moist, especially chicken and mince and understanding how to adjust food based on training versus rest days. The food itself is simple. Chicken, beef, mince, rice, potatoes, vegetables. No fancy recipes, no crash dieting, no extreme restriction. Just real food that works and is sustainable. I’d love someone with a background as a personal trainer, sports science or nutrition student, physique competitor or someone who’s genuinely lived this lifestyle and understands how to eat well while training hard. You don’t need to be a registered dietitian. Practical experience matters more. This would be in home at my place, likely once a week or once a fortnight, with the potential to be ongoing if it’s a good fit. Happy to discuss rates based on time spent cooking, planning and coaching. If you reply, please include your background, any relevant qualifications, how you’d approach meal prep for someone training regularly, your availability and your rate. I’m looking to build a long term setup, not just get a few meals cooked.
