First, it is important to remember this is not a Meal Prep Company. When you are a part of the Grounded by Food meal prep family, you have a single private chef sourcing ingredients, cooking for you, and delivering to you on a weekly basis. Second, I don’t portion out meals for you. Everything is packaged separate allowing you to eat different combinations and sized meals whenever you want. So taking the weekly fee and dividing it by the number of days in the week doesn’t accurately represent what you get. Also if you’d rather pay-per-meal you can purchase meals from a meal prep company, not here.

When you are under the meal prep subscriptions you can skip a week or pause for a period of time with 2 days notice. If you’d like to cancel completely, you just gotta shoot me an email!

Our food is delivered freshly cooked and still hot each Sunday, never frozen! The food is, however, freezer-friendly if you decide you want to freeze the food upon receiving it.

While we do allow clients to purchase our Trial Week package randomly for the weeks they know they want food, we DO prefer that if you join the meal prep fam, you are ordering more consistently than you aren’t. So if you don’t feel like you’d want to be a weekly client, this might not be the best option for you. Being on our weekly plan ensures you’re eating clean food consistently instead of sporadically.

No, we do not. We believe in intuitive eating versus rigid calorie counting. This means, that instead of viewing food from a fearful perspective, you eat what your body is feeling called to needing in order to feel fueled and nourished. Our client’s weight loss and bloodwork results are a testament to why we don’t offer macros.

Our meal prep plan is what it is, we do not have different “packages” to accommodate different diet trends. Our menus are always organic with no gluten, dairy, refined sugar, seed oils, preservatives, or additives. It can be adjusted to be low FODMAP and is pretty Paleo to begin with. If you have specific food requirements outside of the above and would like to inquire about a customized meal plan created just for you, we do offer that at an additional cost. Just send us an email at hello@groundedbyfood.com

We are plastic-free and require ALL clients to pay for a glassware deposit, regardless if you have your own tubberware/glassware or not. Each client receives the same 2 sets of glassware and the same insulated bags. This ensures our portioning is equal and consistent.

Deliveries happen every Monday afternoon between 12-3 pm. You are required to have last week’s glassware washed with lids inside the bag on your porch to swap at delivery.

We currently deliver mostly to St. Petersburg but expand to all of Pinellas County. If you live in South Tampa and are interested in signing up please send me an email as I am building a waitlist to expand our delivery route. If you are curious if we could deliver to your area, please send me an email at hello@groundedbyfood.com
