Mama Bear Foods

Mama Bear Foods Family meals cooked with love Now we make enough for your family too! We make everything from scratch using quality ingredients, keeping salt low and taste high.

We are two mums who enjoy bulk cooking for our families, to fill our freezer and ease the dinner burden on those busy or tiring days. We announce our cook days, share the menu of 5-6 main dishes and a selection of sides, and the online shop opens for pre-orders. Each main is designed to feed a family of 4-6 (age/appetite depending) when served with sides prepared by you or us. You place your prefe

rred order and meals are cooked on our cook-up day and your order is filled. All meals are freezer friendly and are designed to be consumed fresh within three days of cooking or frozen. Pickup is usually between 3:30-6pm on cook day from the Cottesloe area, or send a message to arrange another time and your order will be held in our fridge for collection. We cap the number of each dish available via pre-order to a manageable number, and sometimes end up with leftovers on the day. If something you wanted has already sold out, send us a message and if there's a leftover option it can be reserved for you. Leftover meals are available to purchase upon collection of your meals or will be announced on social media. Visit https://mamabearfoods.com.au/shop/ to place your order now.

One door closes, while another opens...I'd like to start by apologising for taking a very long time to send this update!...

One door closes, while another opens...

I'd like to start by apologising for taking a very long time to send this update! We have seen visitors to our page and are sorry for leaving our valued customers a little in the dark.

Kat and I started Mama Bear Foods in the start of this pandemic, early 2020. This was the same time I was commencing full time postgraduate studies. Our regular cook-ups served to feed our families and earn some pocket money whilst studying full time. Kat chose to leave to pursue other passions and I was very grateful for my long-term friend Jess to step up and essentially take over all the food prep for 2021! What a superstar! If you ordered anything at all last year, Jess was likely the master cook preparing your meal.

Now that I've graduated and transitioning back into the workforce, my time, passion and energy are no longer directed into Mama Bear Foods and as such we are closing our website, page and accounts.

HOWEVER - I did imply there is another door opening, and here it is.

Jess is an experienced in-home cook with the company I h8 cooking. Jess has clientele that she visits on either a regular basis or ad-hoc as required. Just as a cleaner visits your home to clean, Jess can visit your home to cook! She is a registered NDIS provider and can also provide cooking lessons. Some clients are regular, knowing they always have delicious home-cooked meals in their freezer at home, whilst others access the service only when needed. Perhaps if you're planning a camping trip or heading to Rotto, Jess can make your holiday a breeze by cooking your favourite dishes and vacuum sealing. Or you might want to help out someone with a new baby, living alone or struggling, she can portion some individual meals and leave the rest family sized in your freezer. It is a completely customisable experience, designed to feed your family what they want, when they need it. Jess can cater for special diets, allergy aware, keto, LCHF and more.

So if you would still like help with occasionally filling your freezer, then we suggest to visit the website (link in comments) to understand a little about how it works, available menus, pricing etc and then to ring Jess to discuss your needs on 0433 842 828. She keeps her availability for website bookings very low, but over the phone can generally find something to suit your needs. Mention you're a Mama Bear customer and she'll look after you, potentially with one of her famous chocolate brownies or some other tasty treat. Take note of her phone number, you never know when your family or someone you care about might appreciate this service.

With that, we would like to thank every single one of you who has ever purchased, shared, promoted or simply encouraged this little side hustle. We had fun and enjoyed it while it lasted.

Many thanks,
Emma & Jess

We know that our ready-to-eat meals are always popular for the convenience. But if you haven't tried our shredded meats you don't know what you're missing!

Add the tasty shreds on top of nachos, tacos, burritos, quesadillas for a simple mexican night, these always go down a treat with the kids. Or make your own burrito bowls with some rice, sweet corn, lettuce, avocado, black beans, fresh tomato salsa and sour cream topped with picadillo chicken. Maybe it's home made pizzas? Or even in wraps/sandwiches/sliders for lunch time.

This Latino dish originally uses beef or chicken mince and is packed full of flavour. We prefer to use chicken breast meat that is then shredded and combined with a delectable mix of flavours to create one very tasty and versatile dish. You could use this to make tacos, nachos, sliders, wraps, quesa...

A chicken pie in the Bahamas costs $7, while a shepherd's pie, in Jamaica, costs $8. But a mushroom pie in Bermuda only costs $3.

That's right.

Those are the pie-rates of the Caribbean. β˜ οΈπŸ˜‚

How about a tasty Shepherd's Pie?

Ground cashews, honey and coconut cream are added at the end to round off this full flavoured dish. Serve over coconut rice for a dish you will be begging us to make again and again.

How many slices do you cut from your brownie slab?

❀️ 4 - I like them THICK

😑 NOT enough slices (we suggest you order another one then!)
😒 - I've never tried the Mama Bear Brownies (it's ok, no need to cry, you can try them this time!)

Back by popular demand, these brownies flew out the door last cook up. These could be lunchbox fillers, after dinner treats, morning tea munchies or an afternoon pick-me-up. This chocolate brownie is decadent and makes no pretence about being a sweet treat. It's made with butter, sugar and cocoa the...
