Former figure competitor Tracie Tabrizi said that as an athlete with over 20 years of experience in the fitness industry, she joined Balanced Foods as the franchise owner of the Cypress and Katy locations to further promote fitness and wellness.
“I’ve always been passionate about healthy living,” Tabrizi said. “I have two amazing children and a great husband. So, while finding the balance of being a full-time mom at the same time, I'm just excited to build a wonderful community of people wanting to live their best lives.”
What's special about it?
Founded in 2014, Balanced Foods has 10 locations, including the Cypress location, which opened in 2024, Tabrizi said.
“I was a figure competitor, so competing really helped teach me how powerful food can be in transforming your physique and increasing your confidence,” Tabrizi said. “So from being a competitor to a busy mom, remaining healthy and making good food decisions has always been a constant for me and my family, and I just wanted to simplify that part of the journey that a lot of people struggle with.”

At Balanced Foods, customers can find over 40 meals consisting of fresh, preservative-free ingredients with a five-to-six-day shelf life. From breakfast, lunch and dinner options as well as snacks, protein coffee and protein shakes, Balanced Foods has something for everyone, Tabrizi said.
“We cook fresh, never frozen meals, everything's cooked fresh daily, preservative-free and everything has a nutrition label on it ... everything comes in three different sizes, which is kind of different from our competitors, so we try to really cater to everyone,” Tabrizi said.

With over 40 fresh meal options offering different flavors, Tabrizi said menu favorites include:

In addition to its current offerings, Tabrizi said Balanced Foods adds new meal options monthly. The company also offers nutritional consultations to help customers select a meal plan that aligns with their goals. Customers can pre-order online with both pick-up and delivery options, or walk in to any location to find ready-made meals cooked daily.
