It started nine months after Executive Chef Ken Harris had his first child Emily.
Emily's birth inspired world-class Culinary Institute of America trained Chef Harris to create a healthy, tasty, well-balanced diet for his daughter. He made all of her food from scratch using natural ingredients.
In fact, from that day forward the team at Chefables made feeding children healthy food our passionate focus.
Once upon a land, in a time not so far away there were two regular people named Kenny and Lesley. Now, Kenny and Lesley had no hidden super powers, no wishes to grant and no magic dust to sprinkle. They didn't go around kissing frogs, had no interest in poisonous apples and preferred shag carpets to the magic ones.
But what they lacked in fairy tale endowments they made up in passion, talent and drive. And when they put those ingredients together...well, something fairy tale like really did happen...they created Chefables. A company whose mission is to cultivate healthy young eaters by providing meals that taste great and are good for you. So, Kenny put his culinary talents to the test by creating healthy, delicious foods for the ficklest, pickiest eaters on the planet-kids.
While Lesley put her business smarts and customer service skills to work by educating preschools and childcare centers about the importance of developing healthy eating habits in kids. Together this dynamic duo delivered yummy, well prepared, family style meals to schools and centers all over the land. And all quite affordably, conveniently and compliantly.
Today, happy kids can be seen eating delicious dishes like braised carrots, teriyaki salmon and homemade Fuji applesauce and often even asking for more. Which is why we need to repeat a fact that was not so clearly stated but certainly insinuated at the beginning of this story...this is not a typical fairy tale...this, my dear reader, is all true.
At Chefables our culinary team is one of the strongest
culinary teams serving children today.
We continue to make our food for the children from scratch -
artisan, small batch - not processed or prepackaged.
Our performance is best expressed by our most important critics -
our customers. Here is a "tasting" of what we've been hearing...
It all started with our deep commitment to the children. Throughout the year we are hard at work in the field with real customers teaching and learning about nutrition.
We also spend a lot of time with parents, teachers, and administrators and understand what they face daily. Chef Ables Fables is our book that shares some of our favorite learnings over the past years.
"Chef Able's Fables: Mouth-watering tales with nutritious morals" is available in hard copy and soft copy.
