Plated Meal Delivery Review

Dec 26, 2018 · 3 Comments

I’m so excited to share this Plated meal delivery review with you! For any of you that have been following along, you know that I love meal delivery services.  I even did a post comparing 6 services, which has turned into I think 10-12 at this point, check out the comparison here if interested. Since becoming a mom a little over a year ago, these services have saved my life!  They are seriously the best when I haven’t had a chance to grocery shop or plan meals for the week.

Among the many options for meal services, Plated is one of the very best! Unfortunately this meal delivery service has closed but I want to share the meal delivery services that are currently open and are so amazing!

Making meals with Plated meal delivery

Sun Basket

I was a little late to the game trying Sun Basket, but they have easily become my favorite (I should have listened to friends who had tried it sooner!) If you want to read a review of the best healthy meal delivery service I wrote about them, click here.

Home Chef 

I love Home Chef because there are so many meals to choose from along with a lot of delivery day options making it super flexible! I absolutely LOVE that besides the designated meal plans you can add additional meals (so if the plan is 3 meals for a family of 4, if that week you want 4 or 5 of the meals, you can add them on and not change your plan!) You can add on breakfast/fruit/smoothie/premium meals which is nice!

(use code 40SWEETPHI to get $40 off your first two boxes if you’re a new customer!!)

Blue Apron

The reason I like Blue Apron is because you are able to choose between several meals and they give you the appropriate serving sizes!

Fresh n’ Lean

Fresh n’ Lean offers already cooked healthy meals where all you need to do is heat the food up! I love that they offer breakfast/lunch/dinner and snacks and especially loved their Protein + plan, the meals really filled me up!

Martha & Marley Spoon

This is Martha Stewart’s meal delivery program. The food is good, very family friendly. I liked that some of the recipes are from Martha’s cookbooks with plenty of options!

Green Chef

This one is all organic (the other organic meal service I LOVE is Sun Basket, I’ve gotten so many comments about them and they’re allergy/diet friendly!) The meals also have minimal prep making it extremely easy on busy days!

    One thing I worry about with meal plans is all the packaging. Is one meal plan better about that than others? My sister got one that came in styrofoam coolers – very uncool.

      Totally agree with you – the packaging is kind of frustrating. I’ve seen them change over the years and now a lot of the services offer recyclable packaging. I wrote a comparison of different companies (https://sweetphi.com/tried-6-home-meal-delivery-services-comparison/) and one of the companies sends this cool vessel/cooler thing that you send back, so zero packaging. My husband likes their packaging the best lol, but they are a little pricey.

Here are my November 5 star books: Mrs Nash’s A Here are my November 5 star books:
Mrs Nash’s Ashes by @sarahadlerwrites  I did not want this lovely book to end! The characters had such great chemistry and it was overall such a good romance.”A starry-eyed romantic, a cynical writer, and (the ashes of) an elderly woman take the road trip of a lifetime that just might upend everything they believe about true love.”
Will They Or Won’t They by @avawilderwrites Such a cute story and I loved the ending, was not expecting it to end the way it did with the little twist. “Onscreen, they’re in love. Offscreen, they can’t stand each other. From the author of How to Fake It in Hollywood comes “a sexy lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers romance that smolders then bursts into flames”
Flying Solo @lindaholmes97  @justjuliawhelan narrates - she’s my fave narrator. This was such a fun audiobook, there were parts that had me loling and it was a unique love story, I thoroughly enjoyed it. “A woman returns to her small Maine hometown, uncovering family secrets that take her on a journey of self-discovery and new love, in this warm and charming novel from the NYT bestselling author of Evvie Drake Starts Over.”
The Lost Bookshop @evie.gaughan This was such a lovely cozy read with a touch of whimsey, I really loved the story. “The Keeper of Stories meets The Lost Apothecary in this evocative and charming novel full of mystery and secrets. ‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’ On a quiet street in Dublin, a lost bookshop is waiting to be found…”

BAKING TIP: After you make your dough, you’ll roll it out, cut out your cookie shapes, and then put them on a lined baking sheet and PUT THEM IN THE FREEZER for 10 minutes, then straight into the oven after. No cooling and then rolling. You roll, cut, and then cool!
