Jackie Djordjevic

Hi Jackie, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Heirloom Chef was born out of necessity to gain control of my own health and wellness. I’ve always considered myself a mindful eater, but when I was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis at the age of 16 it would take me years to figure out that the food I ate could help heal me, or it could make me sicker. I believe that eating real food, free of added sugars, additives, and other artificial ingredients, is the key to finding real balance in health and wellness. I decided to combine my passion for healthy eating with my culinary degree and more than 13 years in the food industry to eventually become Heirloom Chef. We are dedicated to healthy food and to prove how serious we are, we partnered with Whole30 this year to bring you meals that will make you feel your best and the promise that we take great pride in what we make you each week. ​
We bring creative and healthy meals prepared by a Chef, straight to your door each week. We focus on seasonal foods, as well as pay attention to common food sensitivities so that we can provide the right type of food for each individual family.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
The business has been beautiful steady growth throughout the years. Of course we’ve had some struggles, one of which was when the pandemic started. But we stay consistent and cook from our hearts and I think people recognize that.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
We specialize in from scratch prepared foods that we deliver to people weekly. Our meals are ready to heat and eat and arrive fresh. We also offer homemade frozen soups and other great add ons. We are a Whole30 partner as well, so we focus on no wheat, dairy or added sugars!

How can people work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
Sharing what we do is the best form of support. The more people we reach, the more we can help others find their own personal health journey.
