About Laura Lou's

I started Laura Lou’s as a single mom carrying a lot—taking care of my girls, PTO responsibilities, work, the home, and the constant question of what’s for dinner?

While I love the art of cooking, I’ve never been a natural planner. But I began to notice something: when I didn’t have a plan for dinner, it impacted the entire flow of our day. And when I did, everything—from the afternoon to bedtime, and even how I showed up—felt more peaceful.

In the midst of everything motherhood entails, planning dinner became the one thing I could do ahead of time that had the biggest impact. It created more space to be present with my girls and less stress over one more daily decision.

Just like a mom is often the heart of the home, I realized the meal plan quietly sets the tone for everything that follows.

I believe that showing up isn’t about perfection—it’s about connection. It’s about sitting down, being present, and making space for conversation in the middle of real life. I realized that planning just a few meals ahead changed everything!

Laura Lou’s was built from that belief.

I offer homemade, ready-to-bake meals and cookie kits designed for busy families who don’t always have the time or energy to plan it all—but still value meaningful moments.

Whether it’s a weeknight dinner, bringing a meal to a friend, or making memories with your kids in the classroom, my goal is simple: to make showing up easier.
