Three Ways Feast & Fettle is Sanity Saving this Back-to-School Season

By Kelly Fitzpatrick August 30, 2024

Have you ever thought things couldn't get any busier? And then all of a sudden you enter a new chapter, and life hits fast forward? That's what life feels like for me this Back to School season.  From new schools to fall sports and everything in between, our brains have too many tabs open.  So we are making every effort to simplify while we can as well as to put our family first.

Enter Feast & Fettle...

This mom-owned business is delivering locally prepared meals in Westchester County and we are taking advantage of the peace of mind, nutritious selections, and time savings it offers our family. Here are three things we really love:

No prep, no clean-up: While I love the idea of meal planning there are SO many steps to doing it yourself.  There's brainstorming and researching, a fridge audit, shopping, prepping and preparing.  I'm on overload.  I cannot.  Ordering from Feast & Fettle saves all that mental energy as it couldn't be simpler to shop family favorites or weekly features on the app.  After I choose my delivery day, the job is done!

Family favorite options: Did you also swear you weren't going to make multiple meals? My former self had grand plans for parenthood, until reality set in. When you need them to eat, you need them to eat. But that doesn't mean that parents have to subsist on mac and cheese, too!  Feast & Fettle offers a wide range of delicious kid-approved meals, as well as homestyle cooking that appeals to the parent palate, too. 

A conscious company: Not only does Feast & Fettle maintain a zero-waste model through donations, reuse of ice packs, recycling of containers and composting of food scraps, the company also donates $1 per order to Edesia. a Rhode Island based organization that fights food insecurity locally and globally.

We are grateful to Feast & Fettle for providing us with an option that does the double-good of saving our sanity while also thinking critically about food shortages and waste reduction around the world. There's no mom-guilt here about providing nutritious meals to my family and getting to sit down and enjoy them together.
