The Essentials Package

Overall I'm disappointed

Delivered on the soft, nourishing food sourced with premium ingredients that was promised but I have a huge issue with the amount of protein in each portion. Women, especially women recovering in postpartum should be eating 20 to 30 g of protein per meal. All of these meals fell short of 20. I did the math for the essentials package and I'm paying $20 a serving which is basically a medium sized bowl. There's no way in hell each meal serves more than two meals for those saying it's three or four servings, they're eating a couple spoonfuls. For the price we're paying the meals that included protein should have had substantial pieces of protein in there, not tiny little slivers. The only meal that I felt was halfway sufficient on this count was the chicken congee so I see why it's the most popular. To tell us to add additional protein is absurd for the prices we're paying, it should come with the meal. Also, aside from the venison porridge, I was extremely disappointed in the breakfast meals. Oatmeal is fine, but not for that price and I wasn't impressed with the rice pudding either. I wouldn't reorder and I wouldn't recommend just do your own meal prep at home. I appreciate the thought that went into the meals and the clean ingredients and how they were sourced but overall I have to say it was a letdown.

Lifesaver!!

Post Partum Self Care

Two years ago I used Restorative Roots for my first post partum journey, and now I’m back for the second time. I cannot wait to have my baby and have the Shatavari Rice Pudding as my first meal again! The care and love put into these meals is felt and appreciated for those early days.
