ABOUT

SQUARE MEALS

Square Meals was founded by Alison Mountford in 2006. Alison graduated from the California Culinary Academy (CCA) with the intention of bringing restaurant quality meals to families’ home tables. Growing up in Rhode Island, eating dinner together as a family was a nightly activity and her passion is to enable other families to have that same experience even if they don’t have time to shop and cook.

CHEF ALISON

Prior to the CCA, Alison attended New York University, graduating with a degree in Anthropology.  During college she was able to travel through China and live in Italy where her interest in cooking was truly formed. Travel remains a large influence on Alison’s life and her style in the kitchen.

PHILOSPOHY

Her food philosophy is to using worldly flavors and ingredients in an American way. She is sure to purchase the best ingredients available and use them in a simple but delicious manner. Her meals are down to earth, back to basics, and from scratch – what your mom or grandma might have cooked when they had all day!
