So, when I was given the opportunity to test the service myself, it was a no-brainer.
The meals arrive fresh (not frozen) and last in the refrigerator for up to one week.
The minimum weekly order size is five meals.
As with most meal delivery services, the higher quantity you select, the lower the price per meal.
The minimum spend for an a la carte box is $85.
Fresh N Lean ships for free in the contiguous U.S. if you spend at least $100 per week.
Fresh N Lean has a robust menu and caters to many dietary restrictions and preferences.
In total, there are about 100 meals to choose from across all seven meal plans.
The menus are updated weekly and include various entree and breakfast options.
When I tested Fresh N Lean, I signed up for the paleo meal plan and received nine entrees.
Overall, the meals tasted pretty good.
I wasnt blown away, but I wasnt expecting to be.
Those who prefer to use less salt and seasoning will likely enjoy the meals as they come.
I tried all heating options and preferred using the oven.
Id recommend sticking to the oven or air fryer for those types of meals.
With seven meal plans to choose from, Fresh N Lean can cater to many dietary needs and preferences.
There are high-protein, keto, paleo, Whole30-approved, Mediterranean, and vegan meals.
While the company is not certified gluten free, most meals are gluten-free.
When choosing a meal plan, you’re able to request exclusion of up to three ingredients.
Fresh N Lean is one of a handful of meal delivery services that prioritizes organic ingredients.
While the company isnt certified organic, they do use organic ingredients whenever possible.
If an ingredient is not organic, its sourced from local suppliers and is still GMO-free.
The meats are high-quality, too.
The company partners with animal protein suppliers who ensure their livestock is humanely treated.
The keto meal plan specifically only uses avocado and walnut oils.
Most meals are gluten-free, and many are dairy-free.
In addition to food quality, the company values sustainability.
There was minimal packaging in the box when it was delivered.
The meals were stacked in a cardboard box with a layer of insulation material and three ice packs.
The box is recyclable, and the insulation and gel-pack filling are biodegradable.
All meals are made with organic ingredients whenever possible.
Even as someone who loves to cook, I can appreciate the convenience ofmeal delivery services.
