Green Chef Review

Very Good

Getting kids to eat organic can be tricky, but luckily, One Potato makes mealtime a breeze. The company strives to deliver delicious food that the entire family wants to eat — and not kid’s meals for grownups, or grownup food that kids have no interest in eating.

Seasonal, farm-fresh options, such as spinach ricotta gnocchi and chicken paillard rotate on a weekly basis to shake things up, but there’s an ongoing picky eater menu with staples such as tacos, burgers and pan roast chicken as a foolproof dinner backup. Omnivore, vegetarian, gluten-free, and nut-free meals are also available.

Ingredients arrive pre-chopped and pre-measured in recyclable, insulated boxes, with recipe cards included for easy direction to ensure more time is spent with family at the table vs. shopping and prepping.

Availability: Currently delivers to the West Coast. Ships to select states including Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington (certain zip codes excluded), along with several zip codes in Montana and New Mexico; check the website to verify zip code.

Pricing: Starting at around $7 per serving; Customers can pause or skip at any time.

One Potato Review

A company built on giving customers a healthy dose of organic fruits and vegetables, Daily Harvest is one of the best options for those with busy, on-the-go lifestyles. Never sacrifice taste, no matter how busy you are. Farm-frozen ingredients, including both sweet and savory options, arrive at your doorstep nearly ready to consume — and offer an instant energy pick-me-up.

Whether breakfast, lunch or dinner, there’s no shortage of tasty options. From tomato and bell pepper gazpacho (chilled soup) in the summer months and warm cauliflower and leek soup in the fall, endless options for bowls and smoothies, and even nutrition-packed lattes (like Chaga and chocolate), eating organic will never become stale. Simply choose from 9, 12 or 24 cups delivered weekly or monthly, and the rest is a breeze.

Filters give customers the ability to really pick and choose recipes that work for their dietary needs or personal likes and dislikes when it comes to ingredients. Taking it a step further, Daily Harvest also created results-oriented filers such as beautifying, energizing, and workout recovery to help cater to specific needs. Items are delivered frozen and the most work you’ll have to worry about is flipping on the blender switch — no chopping necessary. And no second-guessing mediocre produce from the market, as its as fresh and organic as it gets.

Availability: Delivery is available to 95 percent of the United States (check online with zip code to confirm); customers may cancel at any time.

Pricing: Starting at around $6 per cup for a monthly subscription of 24 cups; you may skip or pause at any time.

Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, Healthy Chef Creations is temporarily closed and isn't accepting new orders.

Most associate organic with bland and boring, but thanks to chef-driven meal delivery brands like Healthy Chef Creations, that’s a thing of the past. Whether breakfast, lunch or dinner, they offer plans that help support a healthy lifestyle, and most importantly, that taste good. The program was developed by chef John Proccaci, with an emphasis on providing healthy, organic meals to everyone.

Sit back and relax as the team’s award-winning chefs create meals, which arrive fresh and ready to devour upon arrival. Items such as seafood paella with chorizo, roasted Greek vegetables over orzo and chicken parmesan are available and come in oven/microwave safe and BPA-free containers. The company saves you time by taking the grocery store, prepping, cooking and cleanup out of the equation — all you need to do is heat and eat.

There’s an entire tab for weight loss, including the Mediterranean weight loss diet (including lots of olive oil and Mediterranean-inspired dishes), a low carb diet and HCG diet, where meals are developed with specific dietary needs in mind. It’s essentially like having a nutritionist on call. If no plans online are appealing, the brand will also work on custom plans to fit all your needs.

Availability: Nationwide, although certain areas (parts of Alaska and Hawaii) may require additional delivery charges.

Pricing: Starting at $7.99 per serving for breakfast and upwards of $16.99 for dinner; diet plans are slightly more expensive, with the Mediterranean weight loss plan starting at $23.33 per meal.

All meal delivery services simplify life, and then there’s Fresh N’ Lean that really simplifies life. Meals are 100 percent organic and come fully-cooked and ready to eat upon delivery. Their claim of meals being ready in under three minutes is a customer favorite, as it shaves hours off slaving in the kitchen each week — while still delivering delicious meals on the dinner table.

Seasonal, chef-driven recipes that contain good-for-you ingredients are what you’ll get with each order. Sink your teeth into dishes such as Cajun pasta with sustainable shrimp and sausage, cage-free turkey meatballs with squash and peppers and Southwest grass-fed beef chili, while customers rave about coconut and almond butter cups — a way to satisfy sweet tooth cravings in healthy kind of way.

Select the meal plan that fits your personal needs, like low carb, plant-based, paleo and more.

All recipes are dietician approved and created with seasonally and locally grown produce and arrive in BPA-free containers and recyclable packaging.

Availability: Fresh N’ Lean delivers nationwide, anywhere in the U.S.

Pricing: Meal plans start at around $8 per meal. Skip, pause or cancel your subscription at any time.
