Welcome to the official Meal Train page for Mandee and Jesse! We are so thrilled to celebrate the newest addition to their family. As they adjust to life with a newborn, a home-cooked meal (or a delivery from a favorite spot) is the perfect way to show our love, support, and help take a few things off their to-do list. How does it work? Sign up on the calendar for a specific date to provide a meal (make it or buy it) and deliver it. If cooking, please provide meals that are easy to heat up or ready to eat (single-portioned freezer meals, grab-and-go, and snacks are also appreciated!).
Dietary Needs: Iron and/or calcium -rich and nutrient dense broths, stews and casserole-type dishes that can be easily reheated. Delivery Hot Spots: Erewhon, Meze, Pho Cafe, Papa John's, Sweetgreen, Mendocino Farms. Favorite Foods: Beef Broth, Beef Stew with Vegetables, Lasagna, Burritos, Burgers, Sushi, Leafy Greens, Hearty Salads, Whole Fruits and Vegetables, Land and Sea Meats, Plain Full-Fat Yogurts, Eggs and Dairy. Food Allergies/Avoidances: Mandee is unfortunately allergic to oysters, fish sauce, peanuts and cannot readily consume Thai, Indian or Chinese cuisine(s). Please note: Delivering a meal is not an invitation to visit and meet the baby. Unless you’ve been specifically told by Mandee and Jesse that it’s okay to stick around, please leave food on the front porch and send a text to them so they know it has arrived. Please do not knock or ring bell (theirs doesn't ring anyways -- LOL).
