"These meals made all the difference for my postpartum. I felt truly nourished. They were so convenient all you had to do was warm them. You won’t regret ordering."

How it works

Growing a human is hard and takes a heavy toll on the body. With all the pressure, lack of sleep, and learning that comes with a new baby, most moms feel overwhelmed and forget they need to nourish themselves, heal, and replenish lost nutrients!

At Restorative Roots (formerly Mama Meals) we know it takes a village, that's why we source the highest quality ingredients, cook them using ancestral principles from Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, and Weston A. Price, then deliver them frozen to your door. Store them in your freezer and when the time comes – simply heat, serve and enjoy.

To order, choose a pre-set package full of our most popular meals or build your own.

Pro tip: Most mamas choose a pre-set package for their first order then fill a build-a-box with their favorites on the second & so on.

Why Restorative Roots?

Postpartum, aka the 4th trimester, is a sacred time of physical and emotional healing. The body must replenish lost nutrients, produce breast milk and rebalance hormones all while bonding with a new baby.  Our ancestors knew that new Moms should avoid cold, raw, dry, crunchy foods in favor of warm, soft, easy-to-digest meals that promote healing.

Birth, after all, isn’t just about making babies, but also about making strong, capable mothers who believe in their own inner strength. – Barbara Katz Rothman.

Hi, I'm Holly!

My first postpartum was a struggle. I ate the wrong things and ended up constipated, tired, and feeling blah all the time. Before my 2nd was born we prepped and froze 60 postpartum specific meals to have ready, and WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I recovered quickly, my husband spent less time cooking, and life in general just felt easier. I started Restorative Roots (formerly Mama Meals) to bring this traditional wisdom to Moms everywhere!

I was able to nominate a dear family member who went through great loss and she received her box the following week after ordering. I had some questions and staff kindly got back to me with the information I needed. This meant so much to us because our family member is in an entirely different state. I was so thankful to be able to send her nourishing food during a vulnerable time in her life that was supposed to be so different. Thank you restorative roots for all you do and making this possible! ❤️‍🩹♥️

At 8 months postpartum, I am STILL dreaming about the scrumptious creamy chicken and rice congee my family enjoyed in the early postpartum days. The wholesome ingredients and excellent taste made me feel nourished, strong, and cared for. My husband and I appreciated the addition of chicken liver without any detraction from the overall taste. 5 out of 5 stars!

Perfect gift for new mom or investment in postpartum recovery. Was so happy to receive my order from Restorative Roots as I navigated the first couple of weeks of my postpartum recovery. I was so happy to reach into the fridge and have healthy and delicious meals already available. Everything is delicious and the portion sizes say usually 2, but I was able to get 2-4 out of them.

I can’t imagine my postpartum without those meals! It help me have better mood, energy to take care of my littlest one, and even my husband enjoy some of those meals. Many thanks!! 

Ps- I chose to order some more. Just because they’re GOOD! I’m telling you. It’s good!

The Hungry Mama Package helped me so much after giving birth. I was exhausted, healing, breastfeeding, and barely had time to cook — these meals kept me nourished, full, and gave me real energy. Everything tasted homemade and comforting, not like typical frozen meals.

If you’re a new mom or thinking of gifting this to someone postpartum, do it. It made my recovery smoother, my mood better, and helped me stay consistent with eating enough nourishing foods.

I wasn't the biggest cooking husband, and trying to figure out what to eat with a newborn was so stressful. The oatmeals for breakfast and chili for lunch/ dinner was a gamechanger. They were easy, tasty, and we actually looked forward to them. It sounds weird, but feel like the meals set me up to be a better cook! I've started cooking much more and it feels normal.

This was INCREDIBLE!!! I was weary of the textures and flavors especially since my pregnancy had made me so picky when it came to food, but I was blown away by how good this was! I’m going to order more even though I’m nearly 5 months postpartum. I literally crave it, but what I love most is how nourishing it is. I could fell my body receiving the nutrients!

I highly recommend these meals to any postpartum Mama. They make it so easy to take good care of yourself so you can recover well and focus on taking care of your baby. I liked the products so much that I ordered a second box so I could keep using them as my primary meals for my whole first forty days of recovery. 

I also LOVE that they make so many of their recipes available for free. I’m definitely looking forward to continuing to cook some of these meals on my own.

Postpartum is hard, and trying to eat a healthy balanced diet is harder when you’re sleep deprived and getting to know your new baby. Restorative Roots took all of the hard work off our plate (pun intended). It made preparing nourishing and delicious meals something we didn’t have to worry about, which was such a relief for me and my husband. He was able to be more present with us during such a special but exhausting time.
