Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either medically tailored meals or usual care (wait-list control) for 3 months, followed by follow-up/crossover period. The study will evaluate blood pressure, kidney health, diet, quality of life, and other health outcomes, as well as the feasibility and acceptability of providing medically tailored meals to Veterans with kidney disease.
