One thing to note is that the smoothies can be high in sugar. Soups and smoothies are loosely categorized by their overall intended effect, like "heal," "energize" and "refresh." Splendid Spoon also offers a full-day soup cleanse add-on to "reset" your system. Soup options include cauliflower tikka and Mexican tomato, while smoothies come in tasty combos like almond butter and jelly, blueberry acai and a green matcha smoothie with spirulina, ginger and turmeric.

Splendid Spoon is hoping to entice folks who want to keep it simple, easy and nutritious for breakfast and lunch with its ready-made smoothies, soups and grain bowls delivered to your door weekly. This is definitely the best meal delivery for ready-to-go, healthy breakfast and lunches. Why we love it: A no-nonsense way to get your nutrients in with easy plant-based breakfast and lunch meals with no cooking required. While I liked pretty much everything from Fresh N Lean from the tofu on down, my favorite was a tender braised beef with vegetables in coconut-cilantro sauce. The prepared meals I tried were all made from simple, whole ingredients and tasted like quality home-cooked food. Plus, the service is pretty affordable depending on the plan you select.įresh N Lean has five meal plans to help keep folks on track with their specific nutrition goals, including low-carb, vegan, paleo and high-protein options. The meals are healthy and cooked well, they taste fantastic and look appetizing, too. I personally tested all of the leading prepared meal companies, and Fresh N Lean ran away from the pack, ticking more boxes than any other. This isn't just one of the best healthy meal delivery services, it's one of the best meal delivery services, period. Why we love it: Fresh N Lean has the best prepared meals of any service we tested and caters to tons of diets including keto, plant-based, Whole30 and more. In addition to the tasty vegan meals, you can add extras like banana chia pudding or overnight oats with apricot, goji berries and cashew butter to your weekly delivery. Do be aware that some of the Purple Carrot meals take a bit of time and some skill to prepare but if quality, homemade vegan meal kits are a priority for you (and extra trips to the store are not), this is probably the best meal kit for you. Purple Carrot makes it easy to sort its offerings into high-protein or gluten-free meals that satisfy even nonvegetarians. The 100% vegan meal kit service scores points for its inventive and interesting fresh meat-free ingredients and meal prep options like cauliflower and quinoa kofta or sticky apricot seitan stir fry.
FOODIE FIT MEAL REVIEW FULL
Purple Carrot ( full review here) is the original plant-based meal kit service and this healthy food delivery service has a loyal and growing customer base. The recipes, though limited per week, are interesting, unique and use high-quality ingredients. Why we love it: Purple Carrot is easily the best meal kit service for eating plant-based. Blue Apron also has one of the most user-friendly meal plan interfaces of all the meal kit services and optional wine pairings, too. Separate from Weight Watchers meals, their vegetarian options get high marks in the reviews I read, but if you are full-on vegan or vegetarian, there are likely better vegetarian specialty meal kits and meal delivery services with more daily or weekly plant-based options and ingredients. Blue Apron offers customers roughly eight to 12 delicious meals to choose from per week including more than one vegetarian recipe option as well as a few that were created for the Weight Watchers Freestyle program. These recipes align with its point system, making it easy for those in the program to have a healthy diet meal plan and keep track.

Blue Apron teamed up with Weight Watchers for easy-to-cook healthy recipes like sheet pan tandoori-style chicken and tilapia in lemon caper sauce. Probably the most recognizable of the meal kit services, Blue Apron has a lot of healthy, fresh options on the menu - and just a lot of options, in general. It's also the most sustainable meal kit service when it comes to packaging. Why we love it: Blue Apron offers steak and healthy seafood recipes starting at $8 a serving.
