Meal Boxes With Plant Based Options In The US

There’s been a sharp increase in the demand for meal boxes and kits recently as more people have been making the choice to cook from home. Meal boxes provide an excellent option for people who don’t have the time to plan and cook 3 meals per day, or those who simply don’t want to! You can find a box or brand that’s suited to your diet and requirements, and get it shipped straight to your door. Tempting, right?

It seems that in a post-Covid-19 world, meal boxes might just become part of the norm. So let’s dive into a few brands available around the US that have plant-based options.
