Testimonials

Here’s what clients are saying:

“Working with Jennifer has been absolutely essential in my process of healing. I have a very wide range of dietary restrictions. Jennifer has been able to use her magic to create some of the most nutritious, tasty, satisfying and filling meals that Ive ever had! Physically I am able to spend more time on getting the proper rest I need but it has also helped me mentally. I spent countless hours dreading the food I was eating because it was mundane and lackluster but Jennifer knocks it out of the park time and time again…saving me time and energy needed elsewhere.

Jennifer communicates with me often about the upcoming menu for the week, any preferences I may have and makes changes should I request. Jennifer is so kind and supportive and I am forever grateful to have found her online! I cannot recommend Jennifer enough!” -M.B.

“Our family is so thankful to have found Jennifer Fanega. She has extensive experience working with clients with all types of food restrictions and requests, which was very helpful in helping to enable us to create healthy menus that work for our family’s needs. She is always available to discuss any questions you may have and take any special requests.

Having Jennifer prepare meals for us weekly has allowed us to continue having healthy choices readily available without having to spend hours at the grocery store or in the kitchen. It has given us valuable time back to spend together as a family. If you are looking to work with someone who can help keep your healthy lifestyle on track or help free up some of your time, I would recommend Jennifer a million times over. The food is always delicious and she is a pleasure to work with, we are forever grateful to have found her.” -M.C.

“I have always believed food should be a combination of fuel and pleasure supporting and healing the body. I am so lucky to have worked with Jennifer Fanega and to have had her food be a key element of my postpartum recovery after having my first child. I hired Jen to do weekly meal preparation that would align with the nutrients my body and baby would need post-birth, as well as support my husband to fuel us correctly while taking the guessing work out of it for him. I have been truly lucky and appreciative to have had Jen take all the research, time, and effort of sourcing and preparing meals for me. Jen’s delightful food made my life stress free and easy, fueling my body to heal from the inside, helping support my milk production, and fuel my baby with nutrients for her rapidly growing tiny new life. Jen did all of these things beyond what I could have imagined when hiring her and left my mouth watering for more of her cooking each time! 

I’m so thankful her meal was the first thing I ate after giving birth and that I have been lucky enough to be fueled fully through my whole fourth trimester. She thoughtfully chose meals according to my needs and desires and adjusted accordingly with any feedback. Jen is highly organized, creating the menus well in advance, and always is selective in where she sources. One of my favorite things was knowing all my proteins were the highest quality coming from a local farm she has a relationship with. Jen has a special talent to keep the meals healthy and clean but so delicious. You are always excited about your next meal! It was the support my husband and I needed after welcoming our daughter and took the guesswork out of something so important.

Jen was a joy to work with, reliable, and dependable in a time when nothing was (Corona). I would highly recommend her to anyone and hope to be able to work with her for future postpartum support.” -K.L.

“I’ve had the pleasure and honor of having Jen Fanega cook nutritious meals for me on two different occasions over the past few years. Due to health problems which included my difficulties in preparing and cooking food, I looked for a chef and was so happy to discover Jen. Her curriculum vitae was so impressive given that she is professionally trained, her credentials include excellent education and experience, and for my first hiring of Jen is working for a very well regarded Culinary firm Philadelphia. Jen offered me the opportunity to explain my philosophy of nutrition as well as my health care goals.

We worked together on all the different food groups that I considered important to eat and wanted to have. She was always checking in with me as to how I felt about the meals both in my gut and in my taste buds! In general the meals were nourishing and delicious. We always collaborated on the best time, what schedule was best for me, how many meals I needed, the quantity of the food in each meal. The ingredients were as often as could be obtained from local farms. I could go on and on about her expertise, her professionalism, her ability to prepare excellent meals. As important as all that, I must say she really really cared about me and how I was feeling. I highly recommend Jen Fanega.” -M.M.
