Freshly Meal Kit Review

Review Summary

Freshly sets itself apart by providing fully cooked meals (you just need to heat and serve) that are crafted with all natural, whole foods, designed to enable a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Each of their recipes is gluten free. As well as free of refined or artificial sweeteners/ingredients, or preservatives. In fact that company touts it’s list of 85 banned ingredients. While I don’t have any problem with gluten, I love the company’s commitment to whole foods.

The other somewhat unique factor about Freshly is the meals arrive cooked. Of course, you’ll have to unpackage, heat and serve them up; but no cooking required. That of course saves time. But those who like cooking...or those who’d modify the recipe a bit while cooking, are out of luck.

Freshly does a great job categorizing meal plans into lifestyle categories like High Protein, Low Calorie, Vegetarian, Paleo and more. It’s a great service for those who don’t want to cook but want detailed control over what they eat.

If you're looking for an easy option to eat well, without having to cook, give Freshly a try.

How Freshly works

Like most other meal kit providers, Freshly is a subscription service, that will provide a regular weekly shipment.

Unlike some of the other services with specific “plans” Freshly keeps it a bit more simple - order 4, 6, 9 or 12 meal servings per week. As meals come packaged in individual servings, you can order all the same meal...or all different meals. That’s an option you don’t have with most providers, who package each recipe in quantities of 2 servings.

Each week you’ll have the option of choosing from 25 dinner recipes (sure you can eat them for lunch too), 4 breakfast recipes and a dessert or two. The menu is very diverse, and with that many choices even picky eaters shouldn’t have a tough time finding recipes they’re excited about. The week I looked, some of the recipes included:

  • Pork Carnitas
  • Chicken & Rice Pilaf
  • Homestyle Meatloaf
  • Turkey Meatballs and Spaghetti
  • Southwest Veggie Bowl

All of the recipes are well labeled and categories into dietary groups (Paleo, Vegan, etc…) to help you choose. And you can easily get more info on specific ingredients and nutritional information.

Meals are delivered weekly in a box delivered to your doorstep. You don’t need to be home, and the ingredients are shipped with cold packs, so everything will stay fresh until you get home.

Registering & Ordering

The Freshly registration process starts with entering your email address and zip code, to see if you are in their delivery area.

Assuming you’re in the delivery area, you’ll complete the registration process in just a few minutes. While getting set up, you’ll select a plan for how many meals you’d like per week, choose any specific recipe types you’d like (Veggie, Paleo, etc) and provide your payment info.

You’ll be enrolled in a subscription and will get meals sent to you every week. You can modify or skip a week by logging into the site.

Shipping is free.

Where does Freshly Deliver

Unfortunately, their delivery areas are among the more restrictive in the category. Given the meals are cooked and shipped fresh (never frozen) Freshly needs to have a kitchen relatively close buy.  As of this writing, Freshly delivered in these 26 states:

Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma ,Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming

Is Freshly Organic?

According to their website, Freshly does "take care to use organic and non-GMO ingredients whenever possible." However, they don't certify that it is all organic. They do insist they they are using high quality ingredients, and they are always free of additives, chemicals, artificial ingredients, and refined sugars.

Freshly's Quality

Based on my experience, as well as researching multiple points of feedback, Freshly gets high ratings for quality.

Whenever you order pre-cooked meals, there's a risk that something one be to your preference. Even if it's cooked well, you may simple prefer more or X, or a little less of Y. Leaving aside personal preferences, I've found Freshly's meals well prepared and flavorful.

Freshly's Variety

Variety and flexibility are Freshly strengths. Of all the services I’ve looked at Freshly has by far the most options to choose from.

There is a good mix of of both traditional and more exotic recipes with an international flavor profile.

Being a gluten free service, recipes obviously stay away from any flour based products/ingredients. And many meals are protein heavy. However, the week I looked there are 4 pasta recipes (made with gluten free pasta)...and I see rice, beans, quinoa, and other ingredients taking the place of pasta is many other recipes.

Freshly's Simplicity

Things don't get more simple then pre-cooked meals. Signing up is super simple.

Meals come individually wrapped in packages that are easy to re-heat. It takes very little time to prep the meal, and you're ready to go.

Is Freshly Kid Friendly?

While it’s always hard to figure out what a kid’s gonna eat, given there are 25 dinner options to choose from, you should be able to find something for just about everyone in the family.

That fact that each recipe some individually packaged, means not everyone at the table needs to eat the same thing.

Overall

Freshly is the service for folks that want to eat healthy...but don’t have the time or inclination to do any cooking.

The variety of options should keep things interesting week to week, and you’ll always be able to feel good about what you eating.

I personally, would miss the cooking, and the creativity that comes with it. So if you’re looking to actually use the stove, and maybe put your own twist on the recipes, I’ll look elsewhere.
