Between startup life and schoolwork, Garg made no time for meals, eating junk food or takeout — ‘Taco Bell, chicken nuggets’ — in her car or at her desk. Her health took a nosedive. Her close-knit Southeast Asian family, for whom home-cooked dinners had always been a priority, grew concerned. Her father even flew to California with a suitcase of food. While a welcome respite from delivery, it wasn’t a sustainable solution. But it got Garg focused on finding one.

“2015 was the first year that prepared food spending eclipsed grocery spending,” said Ooshma Garg, founder of Palo Alto, Calif.-based Gobble, which specializes in meals designed to be cooked in one pan and in 10 minutes. “That’s been colliding for decades in our society.
