The next time you order, we will send you a reminder to put your empty bag out for us to pick up. The containers cannot be returned due to food safety regulations. Please recycle or reuse the containers!
Also, our delivery drivers are incredible! Tips are not required but very appreciated. If you choose to leave a tip, simply place it in your empty cooler bag that is ready for pickup. Please make sure to have your name displayed on the tip so that we can assure it is given to the appropriate driver.

What If I have Special Dietary Needs?
Here in the Kale To The Chef kitchen, we pride ourselves on being able to provide clean, nutritious meals that are safe for all your dietary requests & restrictions!
Every week we cook fresh to order for hundreds of happy clients who have various dietary needs. You can rest assured that all requests & allergies are taken very seriously.
We currently provide these types of food: dairy free, soy free, nut free, shellfish free, gluten free, onion free, low sodium, vegetarian, vegan, keto, & many more!
Please let us know if you have any allergies or requests when ordering!
We are a mostly gluten free kitchen & are actively working towards becoming a fully gluten free one soon. This means that we choose to use pasta, breads, croutons, rice, etc. that do not contain gluten. If a customer requests a gluten option specifically, we can prepare this separately at request to prevent any cross contamination.
Kale To The Chef sources local ingredients whenever possible! We work daily to develop new relationships with farmers & other local businesses to support.
If you ever have a favorite local item or business you think we need to see, please share it with us!
Food Safety & Freezing Tips
Shelf Life: With the exception of Seafood Entrees, all other meals, soups, salads, & sides are good to eat when kept in the refrigerator until dinner on Friday. Seafood dishes should be enjoyed by dinner on Wednesday.
Tips for Freezing, Thawing and Reheating Meals: Freezing meals is a great way to enjoy Kale to the Chef meals even after the normal shelf life passes. In order to have the greatest success freezing, thawing, & reheating meals follow these easy steps:
1) Cover containers with a food safe wrap. This step will ensure your meal is kept as fresh as possible & prevents freezer burn.
2) Place the container into your freezer.
3) To thaw, remove meal from freezer & move to your refrigerator 24 hours prior to when you'd like to enjoy. DO NOT thaw at room temp.
4) Put meal in oven safe dish & reheat at 300 degrees until it is an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
Note: you may need to add a bit more time OR increase the temperature if your meal did not thaw completely over the previous 24 hours.
TIP: The sooner your meal is frozen, the more fresh it will be after it's thawed and reheated!
Allergies & Sensitivities: Please contact us directly with any questions or concerns you have regarding your unique dietary allergies, sensitivities, & preferences. Our goal is to honor your needs in the safest & most respectful way possible.
Please Note: We do prepare foods in our kitchen that contain ingredients that are linked to common allergens: NUTS, EGGS, SOY, SHELLFISH, GLUTEN, & MILK. Please let us know in advance & we can make accommodations for your needs.
