3 Day Menu ../2017/06/28/3-day-menu/ Wed, 28 Jun 2017 00:51:39 +0000 ../index.html Personal Chef Byron Bay & Gold Coast have starting doing 3 Day Prepared Menus!. We design menu, shop and come to your home to cook your menu. We print out a menu meal plan with instructions and you follow!. The 3 Day Menu is organised in containers of Day 1 – Lunch meals & Dinner meals….Day 2…Lunch & Dinner…Day 3 Lunch & Dinner. We want your meals to be fresh and want you to feel that you are apart of the cooking process….so some meals you may need to blanch the green vegetables and chop up the salad ingredients. I get asked all the time to do prepared healthy meals and after years of being a personal chef…this is the best way to keep things fresh, healthy and it makes people feel involved!. There is no frozen meals, no need to worry about ‘what to cook’ and half the time needed to cook those meals.
