Meal kits to inspire healthy eating
Did you know that the global meal kit delivery service market is expected to grow by 17% (CAGR) to $8.94 Billion by 2025? According to Hexa Research, this is being driven by changing consumer lifestyles and busy working professionals who seek ready to eat or convenient food to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Staying at home does not need to mean eating the same pasta or rice dish repeatedly. For those who want some variety in their meal plan or perhaps may be learning to cook, you can expand your repertoire with ready-made or ready-to-cook meal kits.
How does bruschetta chicken with bacon mashed potatoes and asparagus or barramundi fish with creamy salsa verde sound for dinner this week? These are two of the delicious meals on the menu from Hello Fresh (US).
Ready-to-cook meals with recipes with fresh ingredients can be delivered to your door. Many of the meal-kit providers have family-friendly recipe ideas and healthy meals for two or more people. There are a wide range of options for meals that can be prepared in less than 30 minutes.
Here are five popular meal kit services to consider:
If you do not feel like cooking or ordering takeout, consider heat and eat, ready-made meals from Fresh Meal Plan (US) and Freshly (US). Select the meals you want on a per serving basis. Also, for those who are buying for specific diets, Fresh Meal Plan (US) offers traditional, paleo, vegetarian, signature, ketogenic, lean and mean meal plans.
Finally, make your dining-in a special evening by pairing your home cooked dinner with a local or international wine. Wine.com has an extensive collection with detailed wine reviews.
