Mindful Chef is a British meal kit retailer, headquartered in Battersea, London. It was founded by three friends: Rob Grieg-Gran, Myles Hopper, and Giles Humphries. Mindful Chef supplies subscribers with recipe kit boxes which include ready-measured, fresh ingredients and easily followed healthy recipes.

Set up in 2015 by three Devon school friends Giles, Myles and Rob, the brand's mission is to make healthy eating easy. Its recipe boxes and prepared food range provide people with everything needed to cook nutritionally-balanced meals, delivering across the UK.

Mindful Chef aims to encourage individuals to lead a healthier life by reducing the amount of processed food consumed and cutting out refined carbohydrates. They are the official nutrition partner of the English Institute of Sport[2] and the British Heart Foundation [3] to launch a new range of recipes that can help to support heart and circulatory health.
