Make and Take Gourmet

Make and Take Gourmet

Tired of fast food and want to have fun for dinner? Want something like Mom’s home cooking (or better if she couldn’t even cook a piece toast)? Make and Take Gourmet could be a solution to your problems.

“You go and assemble meals for the week. They provide the ingredients and bowls, etc. and they clean up for you too so it saves you a ton of time and money on wasted ingredients, etc. I made Chicken Parmesan and Chicken Divan, yummm…My friend made some tilapia. You can go home and freeze some of the meals or just stick them right in your oven to cook. They each last about two nights because it makes like 2-3 servings.” - Carrie Williams

To find out more about Make and Take Gourmet please visit their website and schedule a sessions today!
