    Our meals are fresh and never frozen. Can you freeze our products? Protein Bites The protein bites can be frozen in a freezer safe, air tight container (not the jar). They will stay fresh for 6 months if stored properly. Breakfast Jars Please do not attempt to freeze the breakfast jars. Enjoy them as they are delivered, as a single serving and enjoy! Lunch or Dinner Jars Do not freeze the jar with the ingredients in them. Empty the fresh ingredients into a freezer safe container and freeze for 1-2 months. A glass jar will break when frozen. The contents of the jar will change their consistency when unthawed if frozen in the jar, therefore the contents will not be a desirable consistency. Do NOT freeze premixed salad jars.
  • How can I find calories and macronutrients for each jar?
    We provide nutrition information for every meal on our website – inclusive of the breakdown for fats, protein, and carbohydrates. This information can be referenced during the meal selection process. As all meals are hand-crafted, actual nutrient contents may deviate slightly from the written amounts due to the possibility of minute variances in actual packed amounts.
  • How do I prepare meals at home to eat?
    Our meals always arrive fresh and never frozen. Meals must be refrigerated prior to consuming. When you’re ready to eat a meal, simply pour out the contents and enjoy. Our skillet jars are best served warmed up in a standard pan on your stove top. Parfaits, chia pudding, and oats can be eaten directly out of the jar, straight from the fridge.
  • What happens if I don’t like the food that was delivered?
    Your feedback is very important to us. We do our best to make sure all of our meals are pleasing, however, it can take time to learn your preferences. We have a 100% refund policy and want to make sure that you enjoy your future meals. We use member feedback to craft future menus and eliminate unpopular meals. You can also use the specification box to ensure future meals meet your preferences.
