PiquantPoet

My husband and I have done 3 paleo meals a week for a couple months. Liked all but one which was ok but not fab. We are challenged to find time to cook so we have cancelled some weeks and it is easy to do so especially with the 3 text reminders. I am now going to try mixing and matching several meal plan types as my husband is more of a meat eater than I. You can choose organic meats but you will have to use the small highlighted drop down menu on the meal description which means you will have to update your choices every week (wish this could be Pre-set but there are multiple choices for meat/fish so you’d have to trust their choice —maybe they could set an auto-remember if the same meal came up again —which so far has not happened). That is a plus- new menus each month incorporating seasonal produce. We only once had unacceptable produce with a new arrival package (rotted potato and wilted greens with yellow tips). These meals are for one serving for 2 people ( in our case) and a few times we wanted more protein in the dish. Once we actually had leftovers and that was a turkey scramble with lots of veggies. That had a good mix of protein. I think we are just typical Americans used to overpacked meals and this is likely a good way to ease us into a more healthy and appropriate diet. So far so good. The meals do keep if cooked ahead. Love that packaging is easy to recycle. Now if they could just come with a chef for the week it would be nirvana!

Organic, creative and delicious

We love Sun Basket! We've been ordering 3-4 meals a week for almost a year now and couldn't be happier with this service. We chose Sun Basket because they offer organic ingredients, and none of the other services we explored do. But we've also been thrilled with the huge variety of really creative, delicious meals inspired from cuisine all over the globe, the easy to follow instructions, the convenience of the phone app, and the bonus content and recipes in each week's booklet. We've learned a lot about cooking, have tried things we never otherwise would have, and have enjoyed cooking together regularly. It's also been a huge time saver -- no more deciding what to cook, making shopping lists, and having to grocery shop during our busy work week -- or getting stuck with too much of something that just ends up going bad. There are only two of us, so the portions are perfect. And we're getting a great balance of nutrients & veggies in every meal. We're big meat eaters but have also been trying a lot of the vegetarian options and loving them. There have been a handful of occasions when an ingredient was either missing or past its prime, but they've always been responsive and fast to issue us a generous credit to cover its replacement and make up for the inconvenience. Highly recommend.

Tried them All

We tried all the different services with the different promotions and came back to Sunbasket and have been using for more than two years. They have only gotten better. We love the quality of the ingredients and the proteins fresh from the butcher. We love that they are healthy and low in carb, bad fats and sugars. The meals are delicious and easy to prepare- and I feel healthier with more energy and a clearer mind than I did before. We both work long hours and it’s just my husband and I so before we might have grabbed a pizza or Chinese- not good! The proteins are so good- I cannot even buy from our local grocery- we live in a rural area and have no Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s so this has been great- especially with the new social distancing requirements. My fave was that they added the market place and we can buy the proteins and other stuff separate from the meals. I use the sous-vide eggs and the breakfast rounds along with their cold pressed juices for healthy breakfasts. Any time we have had any issue with items damaged in shipping- or food not up to the normal standard they have quickly made it right! I hate too sound dramatic but Sunbasket boxes have changed our lifestyle!
