Meal kits vs prepared meals: which suits your weekChoose the amount of cooking you want first. Then choose the number of portions that will arrive.
How meal kit billing works: first box, full price and cutoffSeparate your first-box discount, normal delivery cost and last chance to change the next order.
Meal delivery for singles: one meal to heat, or cook for twoA two-serving kit can work for one person if you want the second portion. A prepared meal avoids that automatic extra serving.
What comes in a meal kit, and what you need at homeA traditional meal kit supplies ingredients and a recipe. You supply the cooking equipment, pantry basics and preparation. Faster formats move some of that work into the box.
Meal kit menu labels: vegetarian, plant-based and allergiesUse vegetarian, plant-based or pescatarian labels to find a menu to explore. Then choose the actual recipes that meet your preferences; a menu label does not establish allergy or medical suitability.

Meal delivery for two people: which box fits, what it costsAlmost every meal kit is sized for two, so the real choice is how many dinners you want, how much cooking you will do and what the box costs after the first one.
HelloFresh alternatives: the closest boxes, by what you want to changeSix services sell three recipes for two like HelloFresh, and five show a price before you enter a ZIP code. The closest switch for the price, household, cooking or plan.
What happened to Freshly, and what to order insteadFreshly closed in January 2023, a little over two years after Nestlé bought it. It sold single prepared meals to heat, and the closest services today are Factor and CookUnity, with Splendid Spoon for plant-based meals.
