The goal for us is simple… Eat the best real food possible.
When stress, environmental toxins and highly processed “convenience food” abound, we’re aiming to make healthy, easy, interesting, and practical options just as plentiful. All of our meals are locally made, responsibly sourced, organic as well as local when possible, really tasty, and not least of all fun. What you see is what you get - the labels tell you the real story behind our food from ingredients to nutritional info.
In the recipes for each of our bundles of meal joy, we’re going for max use of unprocessed and nutrient-dense food in styles as diverse as the tastes of the active folk we serve. Today that means three different meal lines crafted by a collection of talented local chefs and informed by a team of nutritionists and holistic health professionals, each bringing their unique moves to the food-fest.
Nutritional goals by meal line
Our Mixitarian meals start with a meat and veggie foundation and add in some carbohydrates from safe (less inflammatory) and easy to digest grains like quinoa and rice. These meals can be a great addition to the endurance athlete’s meal regimen or for those who can tolerate grains. They have minimal negative effect on blood sugar based on the use of protein-rich grains.
The Paleo meal line is mostly protein and fat with minimal carbohydrates from non-starchy vegetables. These are ideal for folks who are sensitive to grains and dairy or who want to try limiting those items. These meals have minimal effect on your blood sugar due to the low glycemic load produced by protein and fat.
Our Vegetarian line is also balanced with protein, carbohydrates and fat. We make every effort to keep the protein content high without soy. Folks who try this line might want to add in protein of their own to augment these meals like eggs, nuts, seeds, nut butters and protein-rich safe grains like quinoa. Again – the negative effect on blood sugar is mitigated by using protein-rich grains and healthy fats.
Portion sizes/calorie ranges
The boost size is ideal for light eaters, those trying to reduce overall caloric consumption, or a post workout meal. They range in the 250-400 calorie range. The standard option is a regular-sized lunch or dinner that averages around 450-650 calories per meal and is perfect for most of us. The XL option is for those with additional caloric needs and ranges from 600-850 calories per meal.
Keep in mind that these are estimates and ranges subject to a ton of moving variables (ingredient availability, preparation, among others). So treat these as for informational purposes only, subject to ongoing change, and not a replacement for specific counsel from a health professional.
Bottom line, eating well is too often too difficult, super time consuming or hugely boring. We’re working to help you change all three with simple, convenient but super tasty food so you can do more of your thing, better.
