How I keep myself fueled even though I don't cook
Soylent
I’ve been a loyal Soylenteer/Soylentpioneer since this company started up years ago. Soylent is a complete meal in a bottle containing all the nutrients you need from a meal. As a work-a-holic, I’ve always wanted a sustenance solution that doesn’t require me to INTERRUPT what I’m doing to think about what the heck I’m going to eat! Soylent is THE solution. It doesn’t get any easier than grabbing and chugging a Soylent when I’m on the go!
With sustainability being one of their cornerstones, they use a plant-based protein (production is better for the environment than livestock), the product doesn’t need to be refrigerated (so less waste), and the price-point is super affordable (around $12 per meal). There are several flavors and formats— in recent years they’ve added powders, bars and a coffee and nootropic energy drink... but I am partial to the Cocoa flavored ready-made drink. I drink a Soylent every afternoon when I start to get hungry and lose steam.

Palate Pro
Palate Pro is a local, female-owned small business. Palate Pro meal delivery is a recent addition to my fuel regimen! I met the founder / chef when we randomly sat next to each other to get our nails done at Verbena Parlor! (I LIVE for random connections like this) I’m so so grateful to have met Brittany because on that day, I gained a new friend AND I’ve been living on Palate Pro meals ever since! Every week, I get tasty, freshly-made meals delivered to my doorstep. It’s ridiculously convenient and well-priced starting at $10/meal. All ingredients are sourced locally! They offer free kid meals and ALL the custom options— vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo, keto... whatever you eat... they’ve got you covered!
THE CLOSER?
Free #delivery! They’re always offering their clients special promotions too! Oh AND especially pertinent during the COVID-19 quarantine climate, they do grocery delivery 🛒🚗
It’s worth mentioning that Palate Pro is also known for their private chef services! This means Brittany (who is a bundle of fun) comes to your home to prepare a beautiful meal in your kitchen! When quarantine ends, I plan to have Palate Pro cook while I host a dinner party at my place with all the friends i haven’t been able to see during the COVID outbreak! 🤗
