As parents of growing children, Jim and Jody Bracken felt the dinner table was an important meeting place for their family. It was a place where family members could connect, discuss the day's events, and share a delicious meal. They also knew how hard it was to continually plan and create healthy menus around their busy work schedule. In June 2005 Jody found an article in People Magazine describing a new type of business designed to address these two specific issues. She showed the article to Jim, and in January 2006 Jim and Jody became the owners of the Super Suppers franchise in Avon, Ohio. We met with Jim recently, and listened as he outlined Super Suppers' offerings;
Super Suppers is part of the rapidly growing meal assembly, or meal preparation, industry. You can come in to our facility and assemble meals that can be taken with you to cook in your own home. We provide thirteen different recipes each month that are designed provide your family with healthy, taste-tested alternatives instead of typical convenience foods. With Super Suppers, you never have to wonder what you are going to have for dinner.
By preparing your family's meals at Super Suppers, you will enjoy the ability to serve your family delicious, wholesome meals at home without any of the upfront drudgery of cooking. We do all of the shopping for the recipes and prep all of the ingredients so all you have to do is the final assembly. Vegetables are already diced and chopped, spices are sitting right in front of you, and all ingredients are ready to go as soon as you walk in the door and we do the clean-up. If you are short on time, we will even handle the assembly for you for a nominal fee, or you can select an entrée out of our Grab-n-Go freezer.
Our dishes are very competitively priced. With an average entrée price of around $3.25 per serving, Super Suppers is both a time and cost savings. Stopping by a fast food restaurant would easily cost more than that, and even when preparing a recipe at home you frequently purchase larger quantities of spices or other ingredients that end up going bad or going unused.
Cooking and eating food prepared in your own home has been documented as one of the best ways to lose weight. When you dine on restaurant food frequently, you are generally eating foods with a high fat content. All of our food is seasoned and flavored with only spices and marinades with no additional fat added for flavoring. Every one of our recipes is guaranteed to have zero grams of harmful trans-fats, and we provide nutritional information for everything we provide. You can select your entrées based on calories or by sugar, salt, or fiber content.
Some of our menu items include side dishes and others are primarily the entrée. We have entrées, side dishes, desserts, and appetizers available in our Grab-n-Go freezer. Around the holidays we offer complete Thanksgiving and Easter dinners in addition to holiday helper packs of appetizers and desserts so you can spend your holiday with your family rather than working in the kitchen.
We have designed our facility to host a variety of private parties and gatherings. We have a three-sided fireplace and a digital sound system for listening to your favorite music. We have hosted gatherings of as many as twenty-four socializing while they prepare their family's meals. If you are the coordinator of a gathering who brings at least twelve other people to prepare their meals, we will reward you by giving you your own meals at no charge. Give our store a call for more details and specials.
The mission of Super Suppers is to get your family back to the dinner table, one meal at a time. We strongly believe that dinner time is when you can connect with your children while teaching them manners and other valuable lessons in life.
Whether you stop by and pick up your chosen meals, or prepare them yourself in Super Suppers' modern kitchen, you will be doing yourself and your family a big favor. Call or stop by Super Suppers today, and don't forget to tell them Avon Business & Living sent you!
