我们的测试员怎么说

虽然我不喜欢该公司关于健康照和重置日的一些健康声明，但我非常享受我尝试过的每一餐和冰沙。

虽然面条碗是冷冻的，但我发现它们在重新加热后质地很好——我仍然经常渴望素食肉丸和玛丽娜拉面条。我也很欣赏冰沙很好吃，但不会太甜。

Like Mosaic’s other prepared meals, the family dinners are plant-based, contain at least four types of vegetables, and are free of added sugar and artificial ingredients.

Here are some examples of Mosaic Family Meals:

• Veggie Pot Pie
• Buffalo Cauliflower Pasta Bake
• Thai Peanut Curry

What our tester says

Mosaic’s Family Meals were a hit in my household. While my husband and son loved the flavors and textures, I appreciated the plant-forward and nutritionally dense ingredients.

Plus, as the entrees are stored, baked, and served in the same container, cleanup was a breeze.

The only downside was how long the meals took to cook. Some, like the BBQ “Meatloaf” &Sweet Potato Mash, took more than 75 minutes in the oven.

What our tester says

As a mom and registered dietitian, I loved how quick the meals were to reheat and that each entree contained a balance of protein, carbs, and vegetables.

My 18-month-old also seemed to be a fan. He particularly loved the egg bites with sweet potatoes and kept asking for more of the Berry-Full smoothie — a win for a veggie-avoidant toddler since the smoothie contains avocado and kale.

I just wish that there were more vegetarian meals and some vegan ones, as my son tends to prefer meatless dishes.

What our tester says

I really enjoyed having a stash of Tiny Organics meals in my freezer for quick breakfasts and lunches. They were also super convenient to bring with us on trips to the mountains or when my son was staying with his grandparents.

While I initially tried the meals when he was 8 months old, I found that he liked them best after his pincer grasp improved, around the 10-month mark. His favorites were the Oat Em Gee, Bananas Foster, and Coconut Curry.

How to shop for a meal kit delivery service

When choosing a meal delivery service, it’s important to consider several factors, including:

• Meal kits versus meal delivery services: If you like to cook and don’t mind prep work, opt for a meal kit company. On the other hand, if you’re short on time or don’t like to cook, a fully prepared meal delivery service is a better option.
• Meals provided: Meal kits are generally geared toward dinner, as they provide larger portions and take longer to cook. Meal delivery services often offer prepared options suitable for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Some even offer snacks and desserts.
• Specialty diets: If you follow a specific dietary pattern, such as vegetarian, vegan, keto, or paleo, it’s important to choose a company that offers several menu choices that are appropriate for you.
• Cost: When selecting a service, have a weekly or monthly food budget in mind. You’ll also want to factor in costs such as shipping and additional groceries you’ll need for the week.
• Servings: Many prepared meal delivery services provide only single-serving meals. In contrast, meal kits often cater to households of two or four, with some even offering up to six servings per meal.
• Sustainability: It’s no secret that meal delivery services use a lot of packaging. However, some companies have made strides to be more eco-friendly by focusing on seasonal or local ingredients and using recyclable, reusable, or compostable materials.

Why choose a meal kit delivery service?

Meal delivery services offer fresh ingredients or chef-crafted prepared meals delivered to your doorstep. There are many reasons why someone might subscribe to one of these services, such as:

• Convenience: The main benefit of a meal kit delivery service is that it can save you time on planning and shopping for meals. Plus, if you opt for a prepared meal delivery service, you don’t even have to worry about cooking.
• Diet adherence or weight loss: If you’re trying to lose weight, a meal kit delivery service can make it easier by providing recipes that are nutritionally balanced and potentially lower in calories to help you meet your goals. Many also offer menus that cater to specialty diets, like keto, Whole30, and vegan.
• Healthier eating habits: Many meal delivery services offer recipes or prepared meals featuring whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and fresh vegetables. Many also use healthier cooking methods, such as baking, rather than frying, chicken.
• Exposure to new ingredients: Even the best home cooks can find themselves in a recipe rut. Meal kits offer an easy and delicious way to discover new ingredients, flavors, and cooking methods.

Just keep in mind that with more than 100 meal delivery services on the market, some services are healthier, tastier, or more cost-effective than others.

Be sure to do your research to find a meal delivery service that’s right for your lifestyle needs, budget, and dietary preferences.

Frequently asked questions

Are meal delivery kit services worth it?

Meal delivery services can help you eat healthier while saving time you would spend looking for recipes and going grocery shopping. Because many offer prepared meals, these services can be a great option if you dislike cooking or don’t have the time to cook from scratch.

Plus, even for people who like to cook, meal kits can be a great way to discover new flavor combinations and ingredients.

However, many meal delivery services aren’t cheap and may cost more than cooking meals at home.

Which prepared meal delivery service is the healthiest?

While several prepared meal delivery services can support a healthy diet, Freshly, Factor, and Mosaic Foods stand out for offering balanced meals containing lean proteins, healthy fats, whole grains, and plenty of vegetables.

Which meal delivery service is best for diet and weight loss?

Sunbasket is one of the best meal kit services for weight loss, as it offers a large variety of plans to suit a range of dietary needs and health goals. For example, its Lean &Clean menu provides whole foods-based recipes containing fewer than 600 calories per serving.

It’s also one of the few services with a dedicated menu for the Mediterranean diet — an eating pattern that has been associated with multiple health benefits, including weight loss and a lower risk of chronic disease .

For prepared meals, Trifecta Nutrition, Factor, and Freshly all offer portion-controlled and nutritious meals that can support weight loss.

Which meal delivery service is the cheapest?

EveryPlate is one of the least expensive meal delivery services, with the cost per serving ranging from $4.99–$5.89, depending on the number of meals you select each week. However, keep in mind that there’s also a $9.99 shipping fee on every order.

Purple Carrot is another affordable option. While meal kits start at $9.99 per serving, Purple Carrot is one of the few meal kit services to offer free shipping.

If you’re interested in prepared meals, Daily Harvest is the least expensive for single-serving items, and Mosaic Foods is the cheapest for family-style entrees.

What’s the best meal delivery service for families with young children?

The best meal delivery service for your family depends on the ages and preferences of your kids.

For example, there are several great baby food delivery services, such as Serenity Kids, which offers purees and puffs, and Tiny Organics, which is better suited for baby-led weaning.

If you have slightly older kids, HelloFresh is a great option because it offers a Family Friendly menu to make it easier to find recipes to satisfy even the pickiest eaters. Plus, most HelloFresh meals are ready in 30 minutes or less.
