Lunch Pals: The School Lunch Kids Will Love

What’s Cooking! offers HEALTHY, boxed lunches for kids and adults called Lunch Pals. Lunch Pals are fun, healthy and delicious boxed lunches that are nutritionally balanced and ready for the back pack. They are designed to give kids and adults a fun and tasty, well balanced meal without the chemicals and preservatives of other lunch kits.

History

Established in 2008.

Stacy Williams started her business after a long odyssey in dental hygienics and sales, followed by health care sales. She’s always liked helping people and that’s been a constant. Working with a big pharmaceutical was a less comfortable fit, and she’d always had a yen to turn her love of cooking into something she could do full-​time. After falling into a job cooking for a friend’s party (where the friend didn’t want to cook), she received so many compliments that she conducted an informal marketing survey and one respondent said, «Call me. I’ll be your first customer.»

While it was challenging to figure out quality cooking in mass quantities at the beginning, it’s now become second nature — she easily pulls out three hundred meals per week on average. Her customer base is broad — parents, singles, elderly parents whose sons/​daughters live far away, tax accountants during tax season, other professionals during «crunch» times — all have been customers at one time or another.

This service is a life saver and Stacy is fantastic! I recently had a baby and haven’t had the time/​energy to cook dinner for my family. We order from What’s Cooking every week and have yet to be disappointed. Home delivery is incredibly convenient. I’m sure we’ll continue to use this service even when I’m not taking care of a newborn all day :)

I have ordered from them numerous times and the food has been delicious! It’s like having your own personal chef at your fingertips for a much more reasonable price! The chicken shawarma with roasted eggplant is to die for… literally. It’s that good.
They have an incredible weekly menu with offerings for every palette. You must give them a try. So much healthier then traditional frozen dinners. These are home cooked with the freshest ingredients.

I have used this service every week for the last 3 years and have been extremely satisfied with the quality of the food and the service. I have enjoyed most of the items on the menu and have never had a truly bad meal. The variety in menu options is excellent and the menu extensive enough that I rarely eat the same meal twice in a month. The menu also is adjusted based on season which is a nice touch. The service has been excellent and I have never had an issue with a missed delivery or missing item. Stacey even delivered to an alternate location when I was temporarily displaced from my home for no extra charge. The convenience of these meals can’t be beat and the quality of the food is excellent. I would highly recommend this service.

My experience with them was generally good, the food was excellent, and delivery was prompt. I wasn’t very happy with the $ 20.00 delivery fee they tacked on since all of their advertising promises free delivery. Beyond that, i’ve been happy with the service.

Food is ok, but not for us. For the price, I rather take out food from the restaurant (The prices of entries are about $ 13-​$ 14 for the restaurant we regularly go to, but you get 50% more food in comparison). Too bad that I can not return the cooler. Any one else want to try it, you can have my cooler for half price.

This service is convenient and friendly and a real help for a law student. Food is good and so nice to not have to shop and cook after a long day. Definately recommend the fried rice dishes and the cookies! And the roasted chicken and artichoke dish is delicious! Easy ordering online and convenient delivery. Thank you!

Stacey prepared the catered food for my hometown reception in Ann Arbor. She made lots of creative little finger foods, which where great since it was an open house style party. Everything was healthy and tasty and adults and kids seemed to enjoy it. Her food displays were beautiful and delivery was on time. I’ve also tried some of the prepared meals she’s made for my mom. They are healthy and unique. I love her scones. They are worth trying.

We have been using What’s Cooking for about three years. Stacy is absolutely wonderful. The food arrives when expected, the order is always accurate, and — did I mention — it’s delicious! Stacy is a fabulous chef and offers such interesting options. Since we’ve used her service for so long, we’ve learned that she really pays attention to all customer feedback; she adds new dishes regularly. She also swaps out the menu based upon the season, and is so flexible on making small changes to a dish. For example, if you’d prefer no rice with a dish, she’ll add more vegetables. If you’d prefer whole wheat pasta, she’ll swap that in.
We have a daughter and she loves What’s Cooking, as well. There are options to fit just about everyone.. .as long as you’re interested in delicious, healthy meals! Stacy always offers at least one beef dish, and a couple of vegetarian protein options. There are several chicken entrees, and at least one fish and one shellfish entrees. She also always offers multiple delicious salads, and soups.
if you need it, she also pre-​packs healthy lunches, and there are always «kids picks» — those dishes that are particularly kid-​friendly. Plus, every week, Stacy offers a yummy scone option.
As long as your order equals $ 50 or more, Stacy delivers at no additional charge. Plus, she has some central drop-​off locations; she tries to make it as easy as possible for her customers.

Fabulous — great food, good for you, and our kids eat it as well. Indispensable for the two-​career family.

We reluctantly tried this service a few weeks back. I am here to tell you, we were so pleasantly surprised. This service has been indispensable! At $ 10 — $ 12 /​person /​meal WCA2 is a good deal.
Consider the true cost of dinner:
1) Hassle of coming up with a meal idea.
2) Time, money, hassle spent shopping.
3) Extra items you buy just because you’re in the store.
4) Time spent preparing and cooking the meal when you also need to pick up the kids.
5) Stress of getting it cooked on time so kids and family stay non-​angry.
6) Wastage of excess food ingredients which, if we’re honest, is probably more than 25%.
It is so bonus to get that bag of dinners delivered to our doorstep every week!
To top it off, the food is healthy and good tasting. Big portions (at least to us). I haven’t loved every dish but — hey. Get it and you won’t regret it. Put dinner stress in your rearview.
I’m Taurus Colvin, and I approve this message…

Life has become a little crazy recently — and we found ourselves making hot dogs and mac and cheese more often than we liked! We recently tried What’s Cooking and are hooked! We use it those weeks that we know are just overwhelming — and it goes a LONG way. Try the scones — yummy!

Excellent, excellent. We’ve been trying to get more healthy, and found a flyer for What’s Cooking at our fitness center. We’ve been ordering for nearly two years, and are always happy. The ingredients are high quality, the recipes uniformly good, and the preparation is very reliable. There is quite a bit of variation in the entrée offerings week by week. Delivery has never failed, orders are always accurate.
