HelloFresh Review

Do you struggle with eating healthy, sticking to your diet or just cooking new foods at home? With HelloFresh, one of the top food subscriptions, you can make it super easy to try to healthy recipes, foods and all of it without having to go grocery shopping for the ingredients and look anything up. Making fresh meals has never been easier. Everything you need will be delivered to you (except for things like salt and pepper or pans and pots) and you can choose between many different plans and diets.

Our HelloFresh Review

HelloFresh is a meal delivery service that delivers the right amount of food ingredients for your preferred dish to your home. You choose the recipes online and decide on how many portions you would like to cook. All ingredients that you will need will be delivered in a cooling box so that nothing spoils on the way to you. (I would recommend putting it into the fridge as soon as possible though.)
In your account you can choose if you want to order enough portions for 2 or 4 people and if you want to 2-4 recipes per week delivered.

Choose from different preferences:

  • Meat & Veggies: Includes meats, fish, and veggies
  • Veggie: Includes vegetarian options with a variety of veggies
  • Family Friendly: Quick and easy meal options to make recipes that everyone will love, even picky eaters
  • Low Calorie: Meals that are around 650 calories each
    Once you have selected your plan, you can choose from a variety of recipes that you want to be sent to you. You also have the option to look at the specifics of each meal to see for example the nutritional facts. You will receive fresh produce and meats.
    Unfortunately, you don’t get to choose meals if you choose the veggie preference. The HelloFresh team will send you a selection.

Delivery

You can choose which day of the week you want your box to be delivered. This is important so that you know you’re home that day and can unpack the food ingredients and put them into the fridge or freezer. While everything gets delivered in a cooling box with ice, you won’t want to leave it out for too long. The ingredients come packaged in little packets based on which meal they belong to. This makes it super easy for when it gets time to cook the meals.

HelloFresh Cost

The cost varies depending if you want portions for 2 or 4 people as well as how many recipes you want per week. Here are some examples for the meat and veggie meal plan:
– 2 people & 2 recipes/week: $10.99
– 2 people & 3 recipes/week: $8.99
– 4 people & 3 recipes/week: $7.49
If you click here, you can get an offer of $80 off.

Benefits of HelloFresh


  • It doesn’t matter what foods you eat or don’t eat, they have different meal options for you and you can choose from their recipe menu and look at them beforehand if you don’t like certain ingredients. In my experience the meal choices are great and it tastes delicious.
  • If you want to stick to or transition to a specific diet, this makes it super easy to do so while not making it boring. It will also enable you to stick to good portion sizes and not have massive plates. But that does not mean that it won’t fill you up! We have always been satisfied with the portion sizes and sometimes even had some leftovers!
  • It is a great way for you to learn how to cook if you’ve never done it before. They deliver not only ingredients but recipe cards with instructions. They are easy to follow and you will be able to cook any of the delicious meals you choose. You can also collect the recipe cards and create a collection of your favorite and most delicious meals. Especially if your family has picky eaters I would recommend making note and keeping those recipes around.
  • The HelloFresh subscription service is also great to avoid food waste as you get exactly the right amount that you need for the recipe. No more buying too much of fresh ingredients that might spoil because you’re not using it all.

The Downside

You will actually have to cook. Yes, the meals don’t come prepared and you will have to spend the time reading the recipe, and prepare and cook the food. This can take a little bit of time but often only 30-45 minutes. Not really that long. But if you just want something that is very quick and you can eat it at home, this is not for you.
Also, there aren’t really breakfast options, it is mainly for dinner or lunch options.

Our Verdict

Overall this food delivery is great for people who are struggling to find good meal options but want to make fresh meals for dinner, are a tad too lazy to go to the grocery store or don’t want to bother bringing home lots of foods and ending up not using all of it because you didn’t need the whole bag of X ingredient. It makes it easy to eat healthy and actually learn how to cook certain foods using the recipe cards. And the dishes are delicious and made from fresh ingredients!
