Let us take on the mental load of feeding your family.

We serve families throughout Metro Atlanta and much of North Georgia, including Fulton, Gwinnett, Cobb, Forsyth, Fayette, and surrounding areas.

Chef availability varies by location and service day, so availability may look a little different depending on where you live. Once you fill out our intake form, we’ll let you know what options are currently available in your area!

1. Fill Out Our Getting Started Form

Tell us a little about your family, what you value, and schedule a quick call with Rachel.

2. Discovery Call

We'll answer your questions, learn about your family's needs, discuss chef availability, and make sure we're the right fit. We'll also schedule your in-home consultation and reserve a tentative start date.

3. In-Home Consultation

Rachel and your chef will meet with you to discuss preferences, meal structure, and expectations, tour your kitchen, and make sure everything is ready for your first service.

4. Sign & Get Started

Sign your service agreement, lock in your start date, and receive your first menu to customize.

5. Release the Mental Load

We take care of the planning, shopping, cooking, packaging, and cleanup.. so you can spend less time thinking about meals and more time with your family.

Each week, you can expect:

• Menu planning and collaboration

• Grocery shopping taken care of

• Up to 8 hours of dedicated chef time on your scheduled service day

• In-home meal preparation

• Portioning, packaging, and labeling

• A clean kitchen when we’re finished

Absolutely. Every menu is tailored to your family's preferences, dietary needs, allergies, health goals, and favorite meals.

Each week, your chef will send an inspiration menu for you to review. From there, you can:

• Choose everything from the menu.

• Pick a few meals and customize the rest.

• Request family favorites or recipes you love.

• Or simply let your chef take the lead and choose for you.

No two families eat the same way, and no two menus are the same. Whether you're feeding picky toddlers, training for a marathon, managing food allergies, or just want healthy dinners ready after soccer practice, your menu is built around your family, not the other way around.

Every service is fully customized to your family's needs. Your chef uses your scheduled time to prepare whatever combination of food best fits your lifestyle.

A typical service may include:

• 3–4 family-style dinners

• Individually packaged lunches

• Breakfast items

• Snacks or grab-and-go options

• Washed and prepped produce

Rather than charging by the meal, we provide dedicated chef time, so your service is built around your family, not a fixed menu.

Absolutely.

We regularly create menus for families with food allergies, gluten-free or dairy-free needs, vegetarian preferences, and other dietary considerations.

Because every family's needs are different, we'll review your dietary restrictions and preferences during your consultation to make sure our service is the right fit. For households navigating a large number of overlapping allergies, restrictions, or individual preferences, menu options can become significantly more limited, and we may recommend discussing what is realistically achievable before getting started.

Yes! Our weekly inspiration menu includes macros for each meal, but if you’d rather not see them, we’re happy to leave them off.

Macros are calculated for the recipes on our weekly menu. If you request dishes outside of that menu, or your dietary needs require significant modifications, we may not be able to reliably provide macros for those meals.

If you’re actively tracking macros, we’re happy to keep your goals in mind when planning your menu and can often make adjustments to recipes to better align with broader goals, like higher protein, lower carb, or lower calorie. While we can tailor meals with those goals in mind, we can’t guarantee that every recipe can be adjusted to meet exact macro targets.

No - Many clients provide access to their home and return at the end of the day to a stocked fridge and a clean kitchen. Others prefer to be home and enjoy the experience, sometimes even having a fresh lunch prepared during the visit.

It’s completely up to your preference and comfort level.

Our chefs are carefully selected for both their culinary skill and professionalism.

Beyond preparing exceptional food, they're trusted to work independently in your home and provide the high-touch experience our clients expect. Every chef is thoroughly background checked, and Salt & Prepped is licensed and insured for your peace of mind.

We look for chefs who are not only talented in the kitchen, but also reliable, detail-oriented, personable, and genuinely passionate about serving busy families. We carefully match each family with the chef who best fits their preferences, personality, location and scheduling needs.

Unlike meal delivery companies, your meals are prepared fresh in your own kitchen by a dedicated private chef.

Everything is fully customized to your family’s preferences, dietary needs, and schedule without packaging waste, generic menus, or reheated, mass-produced meals.

Over time, your chef becomes familiar with your household and cooking style, learning your preferences and refining each week based on your feedback.

We operate on an ongoing service agreement with no long-term contract.

If you decide to end service, we simply ask for 30 days' written notice. This allows us to maintain consistency for your family while providing stable, predictable income for the chef whose schedule has been reserved for you.

We also include 3 Flex Weeks each year for planned travel or time away. If you need more than three weeks off, you can choose to:

• Give your chef a paid week off.

• Have your chef stock your freezer with freezer-friendly meals.

• Donate your service to a friend, family member, or local cause.

These policies exist for one simple reason: to create sustainable, reliable careers for our chefs while giving your family the consistency of having a dedicated chef you know and trust.

We don’t—and that’s intentional! The true Salt & Prepped experience is built over time as your chef gets to know your family, which typically extends beyond what would be considered a traditional trial period.

The first few weeks are about learning the little things: your preferred flavors, portion sizes, favorite meals, how you like things packaged, what your kids actually eat, and the preferences you may not even think to mention during your consultation.

That process requires open communication and constructive feedback from you, too! There may be a few small tweaks along the way, but by weeks 3–6, you should start to feel the mental load lift and feel like your chef truly knows your family.

If your chef doesn’t feel like the right fit, we’re happy to discuss a chef change when availability allows. And if the service itself isn’t the right fit, you can submit your 30-day written notice at any time.

Absolutely! We use your storage containers, so if you prefer glass-only meal prep, we're happy to package everything in your glass containers.
