Weekly Meal Prep
How much of your life is spent answering the same question: "What's for dinner?"
You think about it all day — then come home to a messy kitchen, a pile of dishes, and a meal you didn't even enjoy making. So you order takeout. Again. Or you try a meal kit, only to deal with mountains of plastic, limited options, and food that just doesn't feel like yours.
What if dinner wasn't something you had to think about at all?
Imagine opening your fridge to find beautiful, ready-to-eat meals made exactly to your taste — no planning, no shopping, no cleanup. Just food you love, waiting for you.
That's what I do. I'm Chef Kristyn, and I take the stress of mealtime completely off your plate — so you can spend your time and energy on everything that actually matters to you.
Meal prep pricing is structured as a flat fee + the cost of groceries

Hi, I'm Kristyn!
With over 30 years in the culinary world, I've had the most incredible journey — and I'm so excited to bring that passion and experience directly to your table.
My career has taken me from the Yale School of Drama, where I served as Executive Chef of the Yale Cabaret, to the vibrant kitchens of New York City, where I had the honor of being the opening Executive Chef of the New Leaf Café — the flagship restaurant of Bette Midler's New York Restoration Project. Those years shaped my love for fine dining, creativity, and the art of making every meal feel truly special.
Teaching has always been close to my heart. I've designed culinary programs for high school students and adults alike — exploring global cuisines, nutrition, culture, and hands-on technique. There is nothing more rewarding than watching someone fall in love with food the way I have.
One of my most meaningful roles was serving as Executive Chef and Director of Food Services at the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, founded by Paul Newman. Cooking for children with serious illnesses — and doing it with care, joy, and collaboration with their medical teams — reminded me why food is so much more than a meal.
I believe food has the power to bring people together, tell stories, and create memories that last a lifetime. Whether I'm crafting an intimate dinner for two or feeding a crowd, I pour that belief into everything I make.
I can't wait to cook for you!
