I have tried all of the meal prep services, and this one is by far the best. If you have any problems at all, you call or email Green Chef and they make it good - they have really excellent customer service, which is hard to find these days. Here's a code for a free box, doesn't hurt to try! https://www.greenchef.com/plans?c=FIH-91Q78EX2S4V3&plans_ab=true&utm_campaign=clipboard&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=raf-share-hpt

I was given a week of Green Chef meals during a difficult time when I didn't have the energy to shop or meal plan. It's one of the best gifts I've ever received! I've subscribed several times over the years, and I'm excited every delivery day! With a variety of organic, flavorful options, convenient delivery and simple recipes, Green Chef is a terrific experience, if you can afford it! ORDERING 1) Pick your diet type via the app or online. I eat grass fed, antibiotic free meat, so I chose Keto + Paleo. Other options include Vegan, Gluten free, Mediterranean, Pescatarian, Omnivore etc. You can mix & match meals. 2) Pick # of people [2, 4, 6]. 3) Pick # of meals per week. 4) Pick your delivery day. Pause your subscription any time. Cancel 7 days prior to delivery or your card will be charged. PORTION SIZE/VALUE The best value is to order 4 meals per week for 4 people. It sounds like more food than it is. I have a healthy appetite so 2 Green Chef meals = 1 for me. Making 4 meals ensures I'll have leftovers. Especially if I add a side salad or whole grain. MEAL SELECTION Meals are preselected but you can substitute with 24 diverse options each week! My faves - 1) Pho, 2) Ricotta Chicken, 3) Harissa Shrimp, 4) Middle-Eastern Beef & Cauliflower Rice bowls! ORGANIC/SUSTAINABLE Produce & eggs are organic "unless listed as otherwise". Proteins are "raised with high welfare animal standards". I was told if beef was grass-fed it would be listed on the package but it just said "beef". It cooks and tastes like grass-fed beef, dense with less oil. There's a $2 upcharge for organic beef per serving. Fyi sustainable salmon = farmed, possibly GMO. Wild salmon has a $5 upcharge per serving. Restaurants also serve farmed fish... ALLERGIES I was disappointed they couldn't accommodate my onion allergy; how hard would it be to remove them during packaging? But I read the ingredients online before ordering. Several recipes had onions, so I removed them as soon as my box arrived. COST Prices have increased significantly since 2018, especially since optional "premium" dishes add an extra $10 per MEAL. But groceries are expensive, thanks inflation! And they always lure me in with an email special. Without a deal, dinner for 4 people for 4 nights (4 different recipes, 16 meals) = $204 incl. $10 shipping. That's $12.75 per meal, $25 per meal if you have an American-sized appetite! But there are discounts, especially for new customers. PROMOS The current promo is $135 off your first 5 boxes which = 50% off the 1st box & free shipping. Thus, 16 meals = $98.72 ($6.25 each). Score! Four subsequent boxes are 22% off ($165 for 16 meals incl. shipping or $10 per meal). 5% off the 5th box. I usually cancel after the 1st box cause that's too rich for my blood. You can always reactivate. Referring new customers earns a $25 credit and 4 free boxes to gift after the new referral enrolls. It can be a blessing for someone grieving or housebound. PACKAGING/DELIVERY The delivery window is 8am - 8pm. Each meal is bagged individually with a QR code, label & nearly all ingredients, even seasonings! You may need oil, salt & pepper. Insulated liners & reusable icepacks prevent spoilage. There's no delivery notification, so I didn't discover the boxes until 6pm. Everything was fresh, even in the Georgia heat! Meals last about a week in the fridge, but I freeze meat I'm not cooking within a day or two. RECIPES/EXPERIENCE Recipe cards have pictures, steps & ingredients. They're tasty, easy to follow and ready in 30 minutes! After the dull routine of weekly spaghetti, I made Pho! You can download recipes & remake favorites later. I prefer some meals to others, but I'm rarely dissatisfied. Can't say that about dining out! It's a fantastic bonding experience for family & friends and makes an impressive date night! CANCELLATION It's impossible to cancel 7 days prior to the delivery date. If you don't want to commit, 1) sign up, 2) pick your meals for the week, 3) skip at least two subsequent weeks to give yourself time to cancel. SUMMARY I recommend Green Chef to busy people with smallish appetites who want to eat right & have the $$$. PROS - Ease of ordering, diverse options, simple recipes, reusable icepacks, convenient shipping and mostly organic produce & eggs. 4 free boxes for each referral is great and I've never had a problem cancelling or pausing my subscription. CONS - No delivery notification, small portion size, no allergy accommodation, questionable whether beef is grass-fed. And it's expensive! When I occasionally treat myself to Green Chef, I spend less time shopping and I look forward to cooking nutritious meals. Meal delivery saves $$ that would be spent on gas & groceries!
