Healthy meal prep for the Des Moines workweek
Need a lunch you can take to the office downtown? Try a chicken wrap on a day packed with meetings, or tuck a rice bowl in the fridge for dinner after a walk around Gray’s Lake. Our dietitian plans the menu, and our chefs cook and portion each meal.
Start with the meals you want covered. That might be breakfast before an early shift, lunch on the days you commute, or dinner after practice. Open a dish on the menu to see its ingredients, serving size and nutrition facts before you build your box.
Choose how often you want meals
You can order once or set up a subscription. Both let you choose the meals that go in your box.
Stock the fridge for a busy week
Maybe you picked up vegetables at the Downtown Farmers’ Market and already have Sunday dinner planned. A one-time box can cover your lunches at work and leave you something easy for the night you get home late. Pick a box size and fill it with dishes you want to try.
Make weekday lunches a routine
If you head to class at Drake or drive in from Beaverdale a few days a week, start with the lunches you carry out the door. Build your recurring box around those days and save room for a favorite dinner when everyone at home is eating at a different time.Lunch on the Des Moines skywalk
If you work downtown, you probably have a skywalk route you could walk from memory. Here’s a lunch stop to add to it. You’ll find Fresh Fit Meals on the third floor of 801 Grand Avenue. Swing by to see what’s in the cooler and pick out lunch, even if you’ve never ordered a meal box.
On a cold Iowa afternoon, staying inside for the lunch run has its perks. On a sunny one, take a wrap along for a break by the river. If you’re making a special trip downtown, check the store hours below before you head out.
Plan your meals with Becca, our registered dietitian
What does lunch look like on your busiest day? That’s a good question to bring to a nutrition consultation. Maybe you eat breakfast after an overnight shift, or you need a dinner you can heat between school pickup and the drive to practice. Becca can help you put together a meal plan around the hours you keep, the foods you enjoy and the goals you want to work on.
Bring a question or two from your own kitchen. You might want help reading the nutrition facts on a favorite bowl, choosing a breakfast that fits your morning, or deciding which meals to prep yourself and which to pick up.
