You found us! We’re so glad because we want to share our healthy mission with you. Pure Plates was founded on the idea that healthy eating and convenience are not mutually exclusive and that you can eat healthy on the run without sacrificing taste. My name is Sean Sortor and my wife Michele and I have twin daughters and we understand the need for convenience especially when it comes to eating, this is what prompted our launch of Pure Plates. We understand the struggles that people go through trying to eat healthy and maintain a busy lifestyle. So what’s different about our meals and why are they better you may ask? First of, we use the highest quality ingredients available. Our meals begin with mostly organic produce, organic grains, clean meats free from steroid, hormones or antibiotics as well as fresh ground seasoning and spices (over types 50 to be exact). We cook only with organic extra virgin olive oil (under 400 degrees), organic avocado oil (under 500 degrees) and organic coconut oil. As for what is NOT in our meals… NO added sugar, low added sodium (Himalayan Crystal Salt and Sea Salt), 100% GLUTEN FREE along with no preservatives. AND our meals are NEVER frozen.
“Inspired Eating” is not just our tag line but it is how we approach this process, your health is our inspiration and all of our menu planning decisions are based around that one core tenet. FOOD YOU CAN FEEL GOOD ABOUT
Since we opened in early 2015, we have worked extremely hard to create a place for people to experience pre-portioned, health conscious meals that are convenient, delicious and nutritious. Our preparation begins with the highest quality ingredients available. Our menu offers a wide selection of meals, drinks and snacks that are made fresh daily, portion controlled, and nutritionally balanced. SOURCING THE RIGHT INGREDIENTS
When it comes to the sourcing our meal ingredients, we are exceptionally picky. From our internal team of chefs and dietitians to our trusted food suppliers, we’ve created a menu that is nearly 100% organic, 100% Gluten Free and unlike any restaurant out there, we literally add NO sugars or sodium to our meals. We also make our entire Pure Plates menu in house as possible so that we know what goes in our food and where it comes from. This commitment produces strong, successful results for our guests and ensures they are getting exactly what we say they are getting in “healthy” food. It’s this promise that drives everything we do. TOTAL TRANSPARENCY
Lastly, when it comes to the nutritional information on our labels, we hide nothing from our guests. We’re honored that you’ve trusted us to help you make healthy and delicious choices. In return, we will always be totally transparent and passionate about holding ourselves to a higher standard. There are no bad choices in our stores. We make sure of it. We do this through an unwavering commitment to getting things right. The right partnerships. The right ingredients. The right balance. With a strong affinity towards clean, healthy living, we are obsessed with delivering a modern convenience that suits all lifestyles and dietary needs. We begin by sourcing local produce when possible and holding our suppliers to the highest levels of food quality integrity. The heat ‘n eat meals are prepared at the height of freshness and without any additives or preservatives. Pure Plates delivers balance to the body and allows it to restore health and vitality allowing it to function at the level you deserve to be at. At Pure Plates, there are three tenets by which we measure all decisions, and which we hold to firmly:
1. FOOD FUNCTIONALITY — Each ingredient is carefully chosen so our meals deliver on the nutritional benefits they promise. We then creatively combine those ingredients to deliver a surprisingly delicious flavor that most people don’t expect from highly nutritious food.
2. CONVENIENCE — We know that you’re busy and that life at times can be overwhelming. That’s why Pure Plates takes the guesswork and time and out of planning perfectly balanced and tasty meals that you and your family can enjoy any time. Simply stop by the store to dine in or carry out a wholesome meal OR you can save even more time by completing your entire order online and simply pick it up from the store.
3.TRUST — You can rest assured that every consumable item—from meals to supplements—has been carefully reviewed by a registered dietician to ensure that it meets the highest quality standards and will deliver in the way you expect. Authenticity
Quality
Trust. It’s what you can expect from every interaction, every meal and every product from Pure Plates. We are always looking to improve our products and the customer experience, from evolving meal choices to website enhancements to more weekly meal planning options, we are always striving to find new ways to bring our healthy meals to you more conveniently. If there are any questions we can answer or feedback that you would like to share with us, please feel free to email us at sean@pureplatesstl.com. We will respond back as quickly as we can. My wife and I thank you for visiting our site and taking the time to learn more about us. We truly hope that we can provide you with what we believe are the healthiest meals available.
