Founder’s Story

It started with jollof rice and a broken microwave in a college dorm room somewhere in Dallas.

We were two Nigerian boys who moved to the US for school, armed with big dreams, homemade pepper sauce in our luggage, and a desperate hunger for food that actually tasted like home. Between lectures, part time jobs, and long nights of YouTube tutorials on how to make efo riro without burning the spinach, we realised something: we weren’t alone. Nigerians in the diaspora were everywhere, and they were hungry. Not just for any food, but for food that fed their bodies and their souls.

But there was a problem. The jollof at the party? Too oily. The efo riro from that one restaurant? Delicious but heavy. The food was familiar, but not as healthy. That’s when we had the spicy epiphany that birthed Wellness Jollof.

A subscription plan for your favourite Nigerian meals — jollof rice, spiced turkey, asun and more — all made with less oil, fresher ingredients, and smarter cooking methods. Still rich with flavor. Still full of nostalgia. Just better for you.

Whether you’re a busy professional, a parent juggling everything, or just expecting visitors who must eat proper food, we’ve got you.

No more skipping lunch. No more guilty suya runs.

Here, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between wellness and taste. We bring back home flavour to your front door, one guilt free swallow at a time.

From our kitchen to your cravings, welcome home.
