AIP Keto Meal Prep | 1–2 Deliveries per Week | Flexible Hours

A single gentleman in Santa Monica is seeking a chef for drop-off meal prep aligned with specific dietary guidelines — primarily AIP (Autoimmune Protocol) and Keto. Meals can be prepared off-site and delivered to his home 1–2 times per week.

The client typically eats two meals per day, seven days per week, and would like homemade bone broth included regularly. In about six weeks, his dietary plan will expand slightly to allow for items like smoothies, but the focus on clean, high-quality ingredients will remain. He is not picky — just looking for simple, nutrient-dense food made with care.

If you’re familiar with AIP or Keto and enjoy supporting health-conscious clients, this is a great opportunity with a thoughtful and appreciative individual.

We’re helping a fantastic Bel Air family find a private chef for a recurring Tuesday night dinner—and if you’re neat, creative, and love to cook without someone breathing down your neck, this is a dream family!

Here’s the vibe:
Dinner is for 3 people (a couple and dad), typically served around 8:30 PM. Chef should arrive between 5:00–6:00 PM.

A culinary artist who can cook high-end, comforting, seasonal meals

Someone who doesn’t need direction—just come in, cook, and wow them

They love everything from a killer Caesar salad and steak dinner to a caviar and sushi dinner. You should have a big repertoire!

Part-Time Personal Chef | Hermosa Beach Couple (Drop-Off Meals plus Occasional Onsite Cooking)
Seasonal, organic, soft-diet focused | Ideal for a local chef who loves nourishing others through food

We are helping a truly lovely couple in Hermosa Beach find a compassionate and creative part-time chef to support them during a challenging time. The wife is currently undergoing cancer treatment and needs nourishing, gentle meals prepared with care — ideally by someone who is local, familiar with South Bay’s best farmers markets and shops, and passionate about cooking with fresh, seasonal, organic ingredients.

• Snack prep: muffins, quick breads, smoothies, protein shakes, pancakes
• Gentle, healing meals prepared off-site and delivered in clean, reusable containers
• Occasional Sunday night dinners cooked at their home — especially light fish meals like salmon, halibut, or sole

Dietary Notes:

• No garlic, onions, chilis, peppers, eggplant, or avocado oil
• She is allergic to wheat and eggs
• He is not allergic and may eat a broader range
• Vegetables need to be soft or puréed due to a current soft-diet requirement
• Protein intake is a priority
• Nut butters are okay; no whole nuts

• Open to tofu scrambles, smoothies, and other creative soft high-protein meals
• They enjoy fish, red meat, poultry, pork, and hearty one-pot meals
•
Ideal Candidate:

• Based in or near Hermosa Beach
• Knowledgeable about soft-diet cooking and anti-inflammatory, healing food
• Warm, intuitive, and respectful of the client’s sensitivities and evolving needs
• Experienced with organic, whole foods and flexible with dietary restrictions
• Happy to collaborate, offer ideas, and adapt as needed

This is a deeply meaningful role for a chef who wants to make a real difference in someone’s life through thoughtful, nourishing food. The family is ready to meet candidates and create a rhythm that supports health and comfort through the summer and beyond.
