Fresh Delivered Meals

“Delivering Smiles by the Miles”

Delicious, freshly prepared meals arrive each weekday hot and ready to eat. There are weekend options available to make weekend days a little easier.

Unlike other programs, every meal is freshly prepared, never frozen and sealed in a tray to retain heat and ensure a quality experience. A cold pack with a variety of salad, fruit and milk accompanies each hot meal. Focusing on healthy eating, every dish is reviewed and approved by our registered dietician for quality and nutrition before leaving the kitchen.
