We offer a new exciting menu each week, which includes a
selection of nutritionally balanced chicken, beef, pork and seafood dishes. Our weekly menu is posted on Friday mornings and you have until the
following Thursday at 9:00pm to place your order.
As a basic guideline, we provide the macronutrient
information for each dish – the fat, protein and carbohydrate content, as well as
the total calories. This information can be found on
the product page for each dish.
We are always looking for your feedback! Shoot us an email
at chef@charliemeals.ca and tell us
what nutritional information is important to you.
Our food is prepared in a facility that handles nuts, gluten, dairy, seafood including shellfish, whey, wheat/gluten, eggs, soy, and other common food allergens. While we do not use tree nuts or peanuts in our dishes, our kitchen is not a designated nut-free facility. As such, we can not guarantee that your food will be allergen-free.
If you have a food allergy, please send us a text message or e-mail chef@charliemeals.ca prior to placing your order and we will be happy to provide some additional guidance.
Our meals come in microwavable, 100% recyclable containers.
Sauces and condiments are placed in a separate cup, which should be removed
from the containers prior to reheating. Always review the reheating
instructions on the package label.
Being eco-friendly is of utmost importance to the Charlie
team. Our containers are recyclable and reusable. While you may have heard
about “compostable” packaging, the truth is that certified compostable items
such as plates and cutlery can only be commercially composted, which is not
available in Durham Region yet. That means that any “biodegradable” and
“compostable” packaging will end up in your regular garbage and take up space
in our landfills.
All our meals are fully cooked and ready to consume. For
best results, we recommend heating your meals in a microwave for 1½ - 2
minutes, or as indicated on the package label. You can also heat your meals in
the oven by transferring the contents to an oven-safe container.
Please note that the transparent lid we provide you with should be removed from the container prior to microwaving. As well, our black containers should not be placed in regular ovens.
Our dishes will stay fresh and safe to consume for up to 5
days from the day you received them. We always recommend consuming seafood
dishes first.
While our food is meant to be enjoyed fresh, the dishes may also be frozen for up to 1 month, as long as they are frozen within the first 5 days of you receiving them. Let the dish thaw overnight in your fridge and re-heat in the microwave within 24 hours.
If you opt out of fish/seafood/beef/pork, we will substitute with another chef's choice dish. If you select more than one of these options, we will make every effort to still give you 5 different meals, but in some cases, you might receive more than one of the same dish.
