Reasons Why You Should Hire Thyme Management Personal Chef Service – You Can:
- Improve Your Health
- Are you watching your weight or do you just want to eat less fried food and more veggies? Don’t like onions but love mushrooms? Each menu is custom-designed for each client’s dietary preferences and needs (high fiber, low sodium, low fat, low calorie, diabetic, etc.).
- Do you know what you’re eating? Pre-fab meals bought at the grocery store contain tremendous amounts of preservatives, dyes and chemicals to lengthen shelf life. Thyme Management shops the same day for the freshest, highest-quality ingredients. Food is packaged without preservatives and can be kept in your freezer for up to 3 months.
- No more take-out, frozen pizza or fast food that is laden with calories and fat – A popular fast food meal with a chicken sandwich and french fries contains 680 calories and 29 grams of fat. A plain burger and fries at a local mid-tier chain restaurant contains 820 calories and 45 grams of fat. Even a so-called “healthy” salad with grilled chicken and honey-lime dressing at a popular chain restaurant has a whopping 710 calories and 32 grams of fat! With a personal chef, you know exactly what you are getting with every meal. You are in control of what you eat.
- Save Time
- No more meal planning or shopping - How much time do you spend each week deciding what to fix for dinner, planning out the recipes, making the shopping list and going to the grocery store? Thyme Management does your menu planning and grocery shopping for you. That saves hours!
- No more cooking - You don’t have to spend precious time dragging out all the pots and pans, chopping or mixing. All you have to do is reheat and serve. Each meal can be prepared in 15-30 minutes.
- No more scrubbing dishes – There is minimal cleanup because all the packaging and containers used are disposable.
- Save Money
- No more wasting food – How many times have you had good intentions of cooking a healthy meal only to find that something has come up one night after the other, and you end up throwing away fresh produce, dairy or meat? Even meat kept in the freezer can be wasted by freezer burn if not stored properly. Thyme Management specially prepares every meal to be stored in the refrigerator or freezer for your convenience. The recipes are tested and proven to go from freezer to table and still taste gourmet.
- Affordable meals – What do you spend in a week on take-out or dining out? The average cost of an entrée at a mid-priced restaurant is $14. That doesn’t include taxes or tip! Thyme Management provides many meal service options to fit your budget and can cost less than eating out.
- Grocery and gas prices are rising – We all know about the cost of gas pinching our wallets (gas prices rose 2.9% in February and crude oil has reached over $100 a barrel). Imagine not having to spend your gas on going to the grocery store or restaurant. Plus, did you know that the cost of wheat has tripled in the last 10 months? This not only increased the price of grains and pasta, but the foods that eat grains, such as beef cattle, dairy cows and poultry. Thyme Management has not raised prices and will continue to research the most efficient purchasing power of your dollar while still providing fresh, high-quality ingredients. Preparing recipes with produce that is “in season” is a good way to control costs but does not sacrifice quality.
- Improve Your Lifestyle
- Feel better and reduce stress knowing that you are benefiting from all the reasons above.
- Bring the family together around the dinner table again. Research has shown that this improves relationships with our spouses and children.
- Spend the time you are saving doing things that matter in your life – hobbies, playing with your kids, exercising.
- Get out of the dinner rut! You don’t have to eat the same thing over and over for dinner. You’ll be happy to answer the age-old question, “What’s for dinner?”
