About Renal Meal Plans

Our CEO, Greg Miller, explains:

I really love the food business, and when my partner Michelle and I were looking for a great business, we came up with the idea of chef-prepared, gourmet, frozen precooked meals delivered to the customers’ door. At the time (mid-2005) there were not many options available for this kind of service, but we saw the huge potential based on our personal experiences and what we found in the supermarkets locally and across the country.

Taking care of aging parents was a big factor - moving them from a house to an apartment and then into assisted living arrangements. Eventually both of them passed away, but there were so many challenges along the way. They needed assistance with cleaning and meal preparation, but wanted to maintain their independence as much as possible. I just felt like there needed to be a service that could not only make all of our lives easier, but more fruitful.

After a couple years the focus was more and more on special diets, initially low fat, low carb, and heart-healthy, all at the requests of our clients. Then very soon low sodium, diabetic friendly, foods for renal diet as well as dialysis friendly meals. With the special diets category of meals our separate MK Meals Special Diets Menu was developed.

I love to hear from customers and try to personally respond to as many customer inquiries as possible. I get phone calls from our customers every day about how happy they are to have found a reasonably priced alternative to going out for dinner, doing take out, or simply just trying to put together balanced meals at the last minute without the right ingredients in the fridge or without the time to properly prepare dinner for themselves or their family. It’s the ultimate gratification.
