I received eight meals from a few of their menu categories:
- Zen Berry Chia Pudding x2 (Breakfast)
- Butter Tofu Makhni (Regular meal)
- Tofu Scramble & Mash (Breakfast)
- Mexican Bean Protein Pack (Sides)
- Jungle Curry (Lite meal)
- Satay Tofu Stirfry (Lite meal)
- Teriyaki Tofu (Regular meal)
The readymade meals were packaged neatly and kept cool with two large ice packs. Each meal looked great! The ingredients appeared fresh and vibrant. The film on each meal had a clear list of ingredients, a nutritional information panel and heating instructions. The meals had a best-before date of 6-7 days from when it was delivered. Whilst this is not a long best-before date, the meals do not contain any preservatives, so this is to be expected and is a sign of the freshness and quality of their ingredients. It is worth noting you can freeze the meals.
The list of ingredients (to my delight) was made up of only real, whole foods – no additives, flavourings or highly processed ingredients. I have not come across another readymade meal service with such excellent ingredients. The allergens were listed in small print under ‘Allergen Advice’ or as ‘Contains Soy and Treenuts’. Other readymade meals I have tried including We Feed You clearly highlight the allergens on the pack, making them easily identifiable.
The heating instructions were easy to follow with options for the microwave, oven and stovetop. I heated the meals all three ways, and all were successful. The flavours were great – I felt like I was eating a delicious home-cooked meal! I loved the Satay Tofu Stirfry and Butter Tofu Makhani. The serving sizes ranged from 300g (‘lite meals’) to 450g. The 300g servings were appropriate for the ‘lite’ meals, with the other meals providing more grams per serve than Dineamic, We Feed You and youfoodz. Due to the adequate portion sizes, I was very satisfied after each meal.
