Orner and Scarborough's menus provide fresh, seasonal options every week that aim for the standard macronutrient balance of 40 percent carbohydrates, 30 percent fat and 30 percent protein, but with a personal touch. Athletes, diabetics or even people trying to lose weight mindfully frequently track the numbers of "macros" they need to hit every day. More simply, they are proteins, fats and carbohydrates, and counting these can be more effective than counting calories some people are more sensitive to metabolizing carbohydrates than proteins, and thus have different macronutrient needs. Macronutrients are types of calories sub-categorized by the kind of energy source they provide. But for now, they are satisfying a desperate niche, since few meal prep services extend to Santa Fe.Ĭhef Samantha Orner and her fiancé Matthew Scarborough joined forces to create a rotating menu geared toward healthy macronutrient balance for busy people with hectic lifestyles. Available in both Santa Fe and Los Alamos, its founders plan to expand to Albuquerque in January of next year. Now Santa Fe has access to a more homegrown option: the Los Alamos-based Macros Made Easy, a service that began in November of last year. And it seems like these days there's a service for every appetite, from Green Chef, which prioritizes organics, to the eminently customizable Hello Fresh and, of course, the grandfather of them all- Blue Apron, which practically spawned the meal delivery movement when it was founded in 2012.
Outsourcing the chores of grocery shopping and meal planning frees up time and energy while helping to ensure a balanced diet all week long. Meal delivery services are having a moment. By Mary Francis Cheeseman Jat 12:00 am MDT
