Very helpful
Deciding to take an offer from my job for a full time position while also earning my Master’s degree, and being the only person who cooks in my house during the week was probably crazy, but EveryPlate has made it easier. I had to make this little gift to myself to get through it. Just getting the meal kits and refraining from extra trips to the store I am able to save money and cut down on food waste. It has saved me a lot of time and stress. The downside for me is that there are not always many vegetarian options, and some of the ones I just don’t like so I’ll end up getting a recipe with meat and substituting it myself. The plastic waste makes me sad, but it is probably not that much of an issue. I also find it confusing sometimes when the pre-packaged amounts are not labeled by standard cooking amounts, so I would find it helpful to have the measurements adjusted to either always fit with cups/tsp or always half a packet/two of the limes kind of thing. I do also find that I use more pans, cooking sheets, and cooking materials when making these, so sometimes I feel frustrated with the amount of clean up, but I am able to adjust that myself some of the time. I also think the flavor profile can be a little bland for many people, but that is also adjustable on a case by case basis. Overall, it’s a great purchase if you find dinner to be a huge stress at the end of your long work day.Show lessEndeavourgirl114
I love Every Plate!
I was hesitant to try anyway other than my local grocery for meal planning, but this has gone well beyond my expectations!! The food is fresh, plentiful and tastes better than most food at an expensive restaurant. I have also saved around $2000 in the last nine weeks that I have been using Every Plate on eating out and wasteful grocery trips. All I do now is pick up milk, bread and a few staples and the rest is in my box every week. I also have enough leftovers to eat them for lunch at work the next day! It takes a little adjusting to use all the food in your box each week, but I developed a box rotation with a spice box, potato and onion box and other non-refrigeration item box for the things I didn’t use Monday through Friday and then use those left over for the weekend meals. You can skip a week if you have to, but it is working out so far. Love it! Tenth week comes Monday! I have also lost twelve pounds and didn’t even know it! Very healthy meals!!Show lessStephdixon1969
Superb quality and easy delivery
We have been truly surprised by the high quality and excellent meals Every Plate offers. Although we’ve not changed any menu options due to illness, we’ve been thrilled with all the preplanned selections sent. Everything has been high quality and very fresh with super easy to follow directions. Our fifteen year old enjoyed preparing one of the meals which was one of her favorite things she said she’s ever eaten-she’s a bit picky so that’s high praise. We are doing the five meals a week which averages around $73 per week Not expensive at all given you get all you need for two ppl It’s actually an excellent value especially for the quality fun recipes you are given to cook. The options for changing or adding proteins etc to each box is so easy to do via the app. We’ve just not been in need to change anything yet. Every Plate has something for everyone with the variety they offer each week. It is so easy to skip a week as we’ve had to do this week due to traveling. And we look forward to continuing the deliveries once we are back.Show lessKimmyt5025
Best meals
This is the 3rd company we tried so far and by far the best value and quality. I get to choose how much salt, spices I put in. They suggest how much but everything starts out fresh and raw. The portions are good unlike restaurants that I’m missing less and less. We add extra squash and potatoes and other vegetables to stretch some of the meals. We have been buying from them for 7 months and unless the quality changes we will stay with them for ever. The 10 meal plan costs about the same as what going out once with my girlfriend to a restaurant. I’d give the value 10 stars if i could
Update June 12/24. We still love the recipes and flavors of all the meals they offer but the portions are not for teenagers or active adults. At our house we call the portions (Nursing Home Portions) which they are. So without either adding your own grocery store meats or buying extra from them a meal for 2 or 4 you can subtract one meal. The meal for 2 is almost 1-1/2 size portion and the meal for 4 is like 2-1/2 to 3 but DEFINITELY no where close to 4 without add ons.Show less12345677890&!?,,
Great for singles & families!
I am single and I live alone so when I select the two person option and get four meals the week. I have enough meals for two weeks of food and it’s good and I get to try recipes I never heard of. I can do meal prep with the recipes because they’re so easy and everything you need comes in the box. Ever since Covid, I’m not the person that likes to go into the grocery store anymore even though I’m a nurse. I don’t use the program weekly, but I do use it twice a month to prepare all my meals for my meal prep.. I’m trying to eat healthier and smaller portions and lose some weight and this is a program I think that will help me do that. My daughter is using it also and this is allowing my granddaughter to learn to cook because the step-by-step recipes with pictures and excellent explanations teaches my granddaughter skills that she will need for the rest of her life so she can prepare meals for her family..

The best!
We have been getting Every Plate for close to 2 years now. I really like to cook so with the fresh ingredients and instructions we can have a variety of home cooked meals every night! It takes the shopping and planning out and just leaves us with delicious food! Our life has been made so much easier with this service. I work at a medical facility in the afternoon hours most people ask what’s for dinner. Well I already know and they always say how amazing it sounds. We freeze the protein on Monday when our box arrives and just take out what sounds good for our dinner to let it defrost in the fridge. My husband gets home before I do and puts everything out on the cutting board with the recipe card. I just whip up a meal usually in 30 minutes or less. Couldn’t be easier!

Poor experience
First, we had an issue, not receiving our first box. They did fix the issue and give us a free box but then when we did receive our first box, and it doesn’t seem to be very high-quality fresh produce and some of it went bad with an only a couple days like our cucumber, tomatoes and potatoes. Yes that’s right the potatoes!!! we just started getting this and if the produce continues to be low quality we’re going to cancel. They send you food that’s going bad it’s kind of sad when you get potatoes. Something that usually takes quite some time to go bad but you find they are mushy and leaking everywhere within three days and your cucumber and tomatoes Are molding and then you have to go to the grocery store to replace the items anyways just not worth it and they really don’t give you very much quantity wise so not only is it low quality it’s also low quantity, we are getting ready to switch over to hungry root instead, which is more of a grocery and meal plan that seems to be a little bit cheaper so we’ll see how this goes first and decide if we want to switch after a couple more boxes and see how it turns out and hopefully the bad produce isn’t a common occurrence because I understand sometimes even grocery stores to a certain type of food or item in quality condition even though it was three different produce items maybe just because they were in contact with the potatoes could be a reason and if things change, I will come change my review.Show lessjjman45
Terrible Customer Service
I would not become a customer with this company! The customer service is unaccommodating. I had been a loyal customer with them for 30 weeks and had a few orders with missing item. I even had a box sent to me upside down because the bottom was not probably taped leaving a few of my items damaged. Recently we had a few vegetable items we had to discard because they were not fresh (moldy, squishy, and/or slimy), but we made due with what we had. What finally broke us was when we forgot to skip an order. This was the first time that we had ever done this. I called immediately. Our orders were placed every Monday night and I called 7:00am Tuesday morning when I realize the error. They informed us that they are unable to refund and stop the order due to them working with a 3rd party. Nothing could happen. I cannot see how this can be when we are refusing service 3-4 before shipping of any products. They shipped our meals on Friday so the package can arrive Sat. This is terrible customer service because that is a lot of money and food that will now go to waste. And the fact we were loyal to them and they were unwilling to keep a loyal customer after a simple error that anyone can make and tried to rectify. Immediate cancelled our subscription due to poor customer service. Unfortunately, refusing to refund in this case just doesn’t make sense to me and, honestly, we were dealing with ingredients that were not coming in fresh anymore.Show lessFantastic App.!
Love—have suggestions
Meals are always delicious and easy. I would love if there was added functionality with preselecting meals. I would love to be able to state if there was an ingredient that I didn’t want in my preselected meals (ie I don’t like salmon, and i don’t want to end up wasting a meal if I forget to go in and select from the menu) If I could just check off major ingredients I don’t want, that would be great! You could even limit it to a certain number of exclusions if it would get too complicated. But some people have allergies or dietary restrictions that are pretty major. Also, if I’ve marked a recipe as 4 stars, let that rating show up when I’m selecting meals! That way I remember how much I liked it and those ratings will actually mean something to me. If I only rated one star, don’t put it in my preselected meals. This would make the app so so much better.Show lessASD
We love it
My daughter (age23), finally has an interest in cooking, These meals are perfect! Everything you need comes in the box, with full instructions. The box comes on a day of the week, of your choosing. Full recipe cards, with the picture of each item in your box. It has a (1 |2) under each picture of the item, that stands for 2 portions or 4 portions. So if you are making just 2 portions you use 1 of the item or if it is 4 portions you use 2. Instructions are very easy to follow. She loves it!
You can change any meal on the website, three days before your delivery date, by decreasing the portion size and chose another from the many options. So if you decide you don’t particularly care for a meal, you can replace it with something else you prefer.
You can also add meals, protein and other vegetables to your delivery, on the website after your meals are chosen, as add-one.
If you have a family of 5 or 6, I’d choose the two person meals and then you are able to choose food for 6 a lot easier. If you choose 4 person plan when you add on extra meals it increases by 4 instead of 2.
We love it. I spend less money, because I don’t go to the grocery store as often. So I’m not picking up things I don’t really need. If I see it, I buy it at the grocery stores lol.Show lessGrandma Redda
