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.

Meal preparation- weekly

Dandenong VIC 3175, Australia

I’m looking for someone to help with meal prep for breakfast, lunch, and some healthy snacks I can store at work. I’d like to keep things relatively simple—nothing too fancy—but definitely tasty and enjoyable to eat. I’m after a mixed diet, and health is important to me as I’m a regular at the gym and also do a fair bit of running. I’m currently 73kg and aiming to get to around 75kg, so I’d like meals that support that goal—high in nutrients and balanced for energy and recovery. Would love to know what you’d charge to cook, pack, and deliver to Dandenong? I’d likely be looking to do this weekly. I have put a dollar amount as five dollars, however I’m well aware that it will not be done and it’ll be much more. I’m more asking for a quote rather than how much I’m going to spend. Let me know if this sounds like something you’d be interested in! Cheers, Andy
