What happens during a mealMAKERSSM session?
Come ready to have a good time and prepare 6-20 entrees in less than 2 hours. We'll have everything sliced, diced, peeled, grated and prepped - ready for you to assemble. Once you're done, throw your dirty apron in the hamper, leave us to clean up the mess and simply take your entrees home to place in your freezer. Take 3-4 entrees out weekly for thawing and enjoy great, nutritious home cooked meals 3-4 nights a week with your family.

What if I don’t like some of the ingredients?
If you or someone in your family does not like some of the ingredients (for example onions or mushrooms) you can choose to omit them as you prepare your meals. Remember you are preparing your own meals so therefore you can vary from our recipe if you wish. Meats and some selected items are the only portion-controlled items in our kitchen. We will gladly work with anyone who has any particular needs. Simply contact us to discuss specific changes.

Can my children come to cook with me?
During normal sessions school age children are welcome to come. In fact they seem to enjoy eating meals they have helped to prepare. For the enjoyment and relaxation for you and other customers please no infants or preschool children. We do offer Cookie Camp, and Brownie/Girl Scout sessions tailored especially for children's participation during the year.

How much freezer space do I need?
Meals will be packaged in a combination of foil pans and Ziploc bags with saving freezer space in mind. The pans and bags will fit easily in a standard refrigerator/freezer.

Can I make an individual menu item more than once?
Yes, you may choose an individual menu item up to 2 times to reach your total of 12 selected items. If you wish to purchase any additional entrees you may purchase from our already prepared meals to go at the same price as though you prepared them yourself.

Do you use fresh or frozen vegetables and fruit?
A combination of both fresh and frozen fruits and vegetables are used depending on the recipe and individual ingredient. Some vegetables for freezer use preserve better if they're flash frozen shortly after harvesting (like potatoes). Others work well from the fresh state. We experiment in our test kitchen with all of our recipes to find the combination of ingredients that will both taste good and freeze/thaw well.

I’m on a special diet. Can you accommodate my needs?
At mealMAKERSSM we make every effort to accommodate your needs. Nutrition information is available for each of our menu items. However, if the recipes are altered so is the nutritional content. We are also happy to talk with you one on one to explore ways in which you can alter the recipes to help them fit into your specific diet needs. For example, several of the entrees can easily be altered to make a vegetarian dish. Since you assemble your own meals, you can leave out or decrease the amount of ingredients that you don’t want. For example, if you’re on a low salt diet, you can leave out the salt in the recipe.

mealMAKERSSM " Lite " Menu
mealMAKERSSM is very excited about our "Lite" menu designed for those who are looking for the same great taste we offer in our "Regular" menu, but with fewer calories, fat & carbs. These lite entrees are great for those who are watching their weight or just prefer "lighter" entrees. Simply choose from our menu of 10 possibilities and sign up for a "Lite" menu session or choose our carry out option. Dieting’s never been so simple!

What if I need to change or cancel my appointment?
We understand your busy lifestyle and would be happy to change your session time as needed. We do require 48 hours notice of cancellation, as we begin preparing the large volume of food for you that far in advance. If something unavoidable comes up and you can't find a substitute time, we'd be happy to prepare the meals for you at an additional charge. Just call to make arrangements.
